Mish Mosh: Seer

M I S H - M O S H
Winged Seer
clairvoyant, prophet, oracle, or diviner


I was presented with the treat below and wonder if the gal is a seer. I shall read it and get back to you.

Meanwhile, wanna find out and read it too?

InJane
by Douglas K. Pearson

Description from the amazon:
Most people think I'm crazy because I see things they cannot. But if they saw the blood and the torture, or felt an ounce of the pain I feel, they would know I'm not insane.

No one believes me and that makes me more alone than I feel.

To those who meet me for the first time, I'm Jane; once they hear my one-sided conversations and terrified screams, they refer to me as Injane.

Excerpt of first chapter can be read here.

    I liked this -- thanks for the link to the first chapter. I thought it was darkly funny (wry humor). First chapter was over too quickly.

    And... it's interesting that the first line is "I kill trees." This book is a print-on-demand, so it actually potentially saves trees.

    Injane - that's clever! The premise creepies me out tho -- I'm not sure I'm brave enough to even try the first chapter! ;)

    I'm intrigued by the first chapter. I'd like to read more. I really like the descriptive parts like when Jane is describing the Lighters.

    I did not like the first sentence.
    It's a very important thing for me, the first sentence must grab you without being sensationalist.
    The rest of the chapter is ok, but I still am doubtful with that first line!

    INJANE is awesome. That she can see the paranormal world around us with such clarity really sucked me in. I wanted more after the 1st chapter. This is definatly going on my book list!!!

    It's probably a very good read, but for some reason it just didn't resonate with me - yet it was nice getting to read the first chapter for free ;D

    Wry, but disturbing is my take. I guess I'm a weenie lol

    Signed guest book, what caught my attention about the first chapter is when she said she wanted to be with the lighter and Abigal? I wonder how that turns out...

    The first chapter was interesting. The Lighters and Darkers and premonitions sounds foreboding. I wonder where its going.

    It certainly sounds interesting and I love the title!

    Oh wow, the first chapter is kinda complicated.. The lighters, the Darkers, the Church...
    But it is still good! :)
