Kindred

Kindred - Tammar Stein My Review:Let me start by saying... I liked this book O.K.. Kindred was a fast enough pace read that you will not get bored, and a slow enough read, that you become one with the characters. Miriam is visited by an archangel Raphael and is given several missions she must do. She totally bombs on the first one and is forced to move on to the next missions. She moves away from school and gets a job soon after her first mission. After Miriam moves away she meets Emmett. Not too long after, Emmett would do anything for Miriam, he was always there for her when she needed him. It was hard to read how much crap Miriam physically went through in this book. She wanted to complete her other missions so God would show her favor and heal/cure her. My favorite parts of the book was when Miriam and her twin brother Moses ("Mo") were together, constantly arguing and battling with each other. They really loved each other though, you could tell that Miriam and Mo were really close. I think their relationship was strained while battling good vs. evil. Mo was a good supporting character.This book really was a heart thumping read, in the end. The only problem I might of had with this book, is the fact that it moved around a bit, a little jumpy. The flow of the storyline could of used some help. However, it slowly progressed into a very good climatic ending.Amyhttp://ReadingTeen.net/
