Transcendence by C.J. Omololu
4.0
I am pleasantly surprised with the ending of this book, and how excited I am at the existence of a sequel.
Admittedly, it took me quite a while to fully accept the notion of reincarnation in this book and how it worked. Especially regarding the "mental age difference" between Cole and Griffon. Once I was able to overcome that one factor, I wholly accepted the characters.
Cole is a likable protagonist. While at times, I definitely rolled my eyes at her true teenage girl tendencies and thoughts regarding her forming crush, it wasn't enough to turn me off from her.
I also thoroughly enjoyed all the subplots, and the past lives were smart. There was obviously a lot of thought regarding the web of Cole's lives, and I can appreciate all the work that was obviously put in to it.
Despite the difficulty I had in grasping the reincarnation concept early on, I genuinely enjoyed this book, and will be reading the sequel.
