The book really sucked me in

Unelmoija: The Dreamshifter by Elle Boca is book one of the Weeia series, and its off to a great start!

Amy just moved to Miami, and things are already going downhill fast. Confronted with the father she thought abandoned her years ago, she’s not completely sure she should trust him. Then, her opposite, the one person in the world she shouldn’t stand to be around, saves her life.

Oh, and she can dream shift. Meaning she can affect things in the real world through her dreams.

Life on the line, mother in a coma, friends being attacked, a father she can’t trust… things go from bad to worse for Amy. But don’t worry, we’re right there with her. The book really sucked me in, letting me see the world through Amy’s somewhat not-understanding eyes. She’s thrown into the deep end, and so are we.

Amy is Back and Singing a New Tune as Trouble Follows!

I have to send this to the top of the heap of hidden gems!I spent most of this novel smiling, loving the action, the determination and the sheer grit of Amy, Kat and Duncan! Unelmoija: The Spiritshifter by Elle Boco is another spellbinding journey into the world of the Weeia, their arcane laws, a prophecy that some would do anything to stop and our Amy, stuck in the middle again. There is something fishy about the Elders, they are behind something sinister, but is it all of them or just a few? The Youth for Change group is trying to discover why so many young Weeia have not come into their powers, or are weak. Natural causes? A sinister plot for power? Amy is going to find out, at any cost, but is she ready to learn more about herself?

Once again, Amy is developing new powers, and they put her life at risk if she is discovered, but these very powers may be the key to unlocking the true powers of Weeia all over the earth. Prepared to jump from the frying pan and into the fire, Amy will risk all that she is, all that she is becoming to see justice done and wrongs righted. Running right into danger, watching her friends die for her and the cause, Amy must set aside her emotions and learn to deal with matters through strategic planning knowing others may suffer following her. Will she become the stealth weapon they need or will she do it her way, once again and bring the house down?

Rest up before re-entering this fresh and exciting world of the Weeia. Elle Boca uses her own powers of storytelling to cover each page with non-stop action, intrigue and Duncan’s amazing appetite! Her characters are alive; they are dimensional and full of unique personalities that help wrap this tale around you. Do you like being part of each scene as it plays out around you? Elle Boca makes each page fade away as she brilliantly rolls those mental cameras we all have. Sprinkles of humor, a touch of sadness, a few specks of doubt, the sweet blush of romance and a boatload of adventure will have you gasping for breath! Non-stop from start to finish, Ms. Boca keeps her readers glued to every scene and the amazing resilience of Amy and her friends. The question we have is, has Amy finally accepted who she may be or is she still lost in denial? All of her powers she takes in stride, how can she miss “The Signs?”

Unelmoija: The Mindshifter was an enjoyable book

Amy, along with her college friends Krissa and Lilly, are going to South Beach for a well-deserved girl’s weekend, but everything goes wrong when Lilly goes missing. Amy and Krissa pick up the trail from a nightclub to find out what happened to Lilly and to rescue her, but they had no idea they were entering a world of slavers and trafficking. Amy is helped by a group of people who are trying to stop the slavers but the leader is not someone she was expecting. Time is running out to save Lilly before she disappears and only Amy’s powers might be able to rescue her in time.

Unelmoija: The Mindshifter is the second book in the Weeia series and is a likeable novel. While still fast paced like the first book, it was much darker and has a more serious tone. However, also like the first book I felt Amy’s past was not fully explained and it was talked about like it was normal for you and your mum to be kidnapped and your sister to be missing.

Amy has grown since the first book as she is more sure of herself and comfortable with her powers but is still the same girl. I wish that Duncan was in this book more as he was my favourite character from the last book. The leader of the people fighting against the slavers (cannot say their name because of spoilers) annoyed my as they were just a bit too perfect and was good at everything. Another annoying thing with this book is the dissing of the police as the police, at least in the UK I cannot talk for other countries, try their best and while there are some bad ones, the vast majority want to help people.

Unelmoija: The Mindshifter was an enjoyable book and I would recommend to fans of the first book Unelmoija: The Dreamshifer.

I would recommend Unelmoija: The Dreamshifter to fans of YA paranormal books

Amy has recently discovered she has powers but she does not know how to control them and has no idea how she has them. When going for a jog on the beaches of Miami she meets a mysterious man who claims to be her father and a young man called Duncan, they say that she is part of a people called Weeia and that she is a Dreamshifter. With people wanting to kill her will she be able to master her skills in time?

Unelmoija: The Dreamshifer is an enjoyable paranormal book which is fairly light and very fast paced. However, the main problem I had with this book is that it felt like I was halfway through the story and nothing from the past was fully explained, such as such as Amy and her mother being kidnapped and Amy’s sister being missing, it was talked about like we the readers already knew what had happened.

Amy is an active, witty and likeable character who does not know who to trust and is confused about her powers. I liked Duncan as he is a protective and funny guy who can be sarcastic but also sweet. However, I did get a bit bored of the food scenes as it did get a bit repetitive.

I liked this book and am looking forward to reading the next one, Unelmoija: The Mindshifter. I would recommend Unelmoija: The Dreamshifter to fans of YA paranormal books.
