Review:
Leah Nazir is an Insighter. Reincarnation is her business. But while her clients’ pasts are a mess, Leah’s is nothing short of tragedy. She’s been murdered. A lot. If left to that bitch, destiny, it’ll happen again. Leah wants to know who’s been following her through time, and who’s been stalking her in the present...
P.I. Archer Drake has been hired by Leah’s mother to keep an eye on her. But the more time he spends watching, the more he finds himself infatuated. Before long, he even finds himself agreeing to help find the person who wants her dead. Over and over again.
Now going full-on “rewind,” Leah hopes it can stave off the inevitable. After all, she’s grown fond of this life—and even fonder of nerdy Archer. But changing her pattern means finding out who her killer is today. And as Leah fears, that could be anyone she has come to know and trust. Anyone.
I really liked the idea behind Deja Who a title that really fits this book because of what takes place inside of it. I loved the idea behind the book, I love that it has to do with reincarnation because its something that is completely different from almost every paranormal book I've read lately.
That's something I really needed recently because a lot of paranormal books have been sounding nearly the same as every other book I've read lately. Not a bad thing but its nice to see something unique.
The biggest downfall for me was Archer and Leah. They're meant to carry this story and I really couldn't seem to like either one of them.
Leah was completely cold, and Archer was erratic. It made things fairly predictable because of them being jaded from their experiences in their lives but I just couldn't grow to like either one of them no matter what I tried.
I'm still really intrigued by the reincarnation journey and what's going to happen in the next book but I really hope to gain some kind of attachment to our h/h next time around.
