Over and Over You

The engaging novel Over And Over You so deftly and imaginatively written by Amy McAuley is a story of a seventeen-year-old girl, who can barely keep a boy's attention for a five-minute conversation, and the experiences of her past lives haunting the present day. She remembers a boyfriend she has had for a thousand years, in different incarnations - yet it was not only a thousand years of love, but also a thousand years of betrayal and tragedy. Her best friend's life depends on whether she can reshape the future with hope instead of an endless, cyclical repetition in this involving novel that portrays past life regression as an ordinary, skeptical, yet overwhelmed and bewildered teenager might see it.

After seventeen year old Penny learns from a psychic that she's been in love with the same guy for a thousand years she starts dreaming about him and her best friend, Di, in some of the past lives they shared. The dreams are usually nightmares though, about the guy and Di dying, and it doesn't take long for Penny to wonder if she's going crazy. I thought this book was going to be a typical romance novel but it wasn't. It has romance in it, the book is about destiny and finding your true love, but it hooks you with suspenseful chapter endings that make it impossible to stop reading. The end was awesome and the charcters were realistic, expect I would have liked to know more about Rick. I highly, highly, highly recommend this book! You will love it. There should be a sequel.
