Review of Clarity by Kim Harrington




Title: Clarity


Author: Kim Harrington


DescriptionWhen you can see things others can't, where do you look for the truth? 
This paranormal murder mystery will have teens reading on the edge of their seats. 
Clarity "Clare" Fern sees things. Things no one else can see. Things like stolen kisses and long-buried secrets. All she has to do is touch a certain object, and the visions come to her. It's a gift. 
And a curse. 
When a teenage girl is found murdered, Clare's ex-boyfriend wants her to help solve the case - but Clare is still furious at the cheating jerk. Then Clare's brother - who has supernatural gifts of his own - becomes the prime suspect, and Clare can no longer look away. Teaming up with Gabriel, the smoldering son of the new detective, Clare must venture into the depths of fear, revenge, and lust in order to track the killer. But will her sight fail her just when she needs it most?

Review: Usually I would further explain the plot of the book in my review but I believe the description sums it up perfectly, after all, I wouldn't want to give anything away. When I read the description for this book, I knew I had to read it. I am not usually drawn to the paranormal/fantasy type books but I really enjoyed this one. Kim Harrington manages to keep the reader fully engaged through the entire plot. I was constantly changing my mind about who the killer was and I couldn't put the book down until I found out. This book has a satisfying conclusion despite the fact that it is the first in a series. It gives you closure, but still leaves you wanting more. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and I would recommend it to anyone that enjoys a good mystery.

Bottom Line: Kim Harrington gets you hooked and you just can't seem to put the book down. The ending has a surprising twist and no matter how hard I tried, I could not figure out who the killer was until it was revealed. I recommend this to anyone that loves a good mystery or just wants a great new series to read.

Rating(1-5): 4
