~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Friday Find:


Chosen by Paula Bradley: (Book Description from Amazon)
Shy and introverted Mariah Carpenter has concealed a hidden talent from childhood that, according to her mother, would brand her a freak. Now a fateful encounter has caused her secret skill—an extraordinary psychic ability—to become greatly enhanced. Suddenly, she has a purpose for her gift, as her vision gives her the ability to find kidnapped children telepathically. But is this a blessing or a curse? When Mariah’s fourth finding is filmed by the FBI and the recording is stolen and sold to a broadcast journalist, Mariah’s worst nightmare becomes a reality. She is acclaimed worldwide as a saint and messenger from God—and vilified as the Antichrist whose powers must be quelled. Meanwhile, another government agency has its own covert agenda for Mariah…. In the midst of all of this, Mariah has a series of horrifying nightmares, culminating in the discovery of an ingenious serial killer, one who somehow prevents Mariah from finding out who and where he is. Locating this murderer before he kills again becomes Mariah’s obsession, one that threatens to consume her––and could even destroy her.

OMG! I didn't particularly like The Alchemist either! I really thought it would be more than what it was. Great choice.

I'm surprised to see The Alcemist on the list. I think my least favorite would be The DaVinci Code but I didn't finish it. I havea bad habit of ditching books if they're just that terrible.
