Saddled with powers she doesn't understand, Etta Fleming's world is turned upside-down the day she meets Cooper Everett, the man who transports her to an alternate reality. A reality she was meant to be a part of.

One minute, she's an orphan living at Dominion House for Girls, an institution for delinquent foster kids, then finds herself attending the exclusive Dominion Hall Academy.

Teenagers (it is a YA book after all) or those wanting a easy fantasy/sci-fi read

The characters are very well written and are described brilliantly, making it easy to follow them and fall into their story.
Although the story line is a bit choppy and confusing at first, once you get the hang of what is going on and which reality is which, everything does start to make sense. Mind you, it was all a little too predictable.

The cliffhanger... grr I hate cliffhangers like that!

The other books in the series are on my list of possible books to read in the future, but I'm not falling over myself to read them.

Claudia Lefeve was born and raised in the Gulf Coast border town of Brownsville, Texas. Parallel, the first book in The Travelers series, is her debut YA speculative novel

Its a simple and well considered book... If you like this kind of thing!
