The Edinburgh Seer: Edinburgh Seer Book One The Edinburgh Seer: Edinburgh Seer Book One by Alisha Klapheke
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Synopsis:

OUTLANDER meets MORTAL INSTRUMENTS in this new fantasy by USA Today bestselling author Alisha Klapheke! 

Aini MacGregor has a deadly secret. 

In an alternate, modern-day Scotland, she must hide her sixth sense or face the firing squad. Because of the king’s mysterious fear of sixth-sensers, his head of security hunts people like her. And the man's clan has a choke-hold on her hometown of Edinburgh. 

When Aini’s father is abducted, she must risk death and use her ability to follow a trail of artifacts to save him. 

Despite the rebels trying to lure her into their fight, the ghostly encounters, and the constant fear that the kingsmen will catch up, Aini believes she and her father’s apprentice will win out. 

Until she learns who the apprentice really is. 

His secret is far more frightening than hers and its unraveling will flip both their worlds upside down.

My Thoughts:

Cover/title: The cover is pretty and the title only hints at the story.

Characters: The characters are ok. I really didn't feel much of a connections to them. I wish I could say I even have a favorite but I don't.

Plot: The plot idea could have been good but the book just didn't keep me interested. Honestly, I fell asleep twice while trying to read this book. I finally just decided to plow my way through.

Overall: It was an ok book but not one of my favorites. I was a bit disappointed because the plot idea had potential. It just didn't live up to it.
