C.J. Omololu's sophomore novel, Transcendence, has very little in common with her debut Dirty Little Secrets... except for the fact that they're both captivating reads.Omololu's debut is about a girl dealing with her mother's uncontrollable urge to hoard - think along the lines of the A&E's Hoarders...
MY THOUGHTSREALLY LIKED ITCello player and high school student, Cole (Nicole), keeps have breaks with reality, triggered by her location, where is transported back in time and reenacts history. At first, she feels like she is just a witness, but then the flashbacks become more personal and she feel...
I have to say that after finishing Transcendence, I'm left with mixed feelings. There were parts that I absolutely adored and sometimes I just found myself shaking my head and wanting to do a facepalm. And some of those times I did.

I think the idea of reincarnation is fascinating, so when I read the synopsis for this book I was really excited about it. I was a bit disappointed that it was pretty slow moving, but it was still interesting and was able to keep my attention. It took a little while to really get into it and at fir...
Fans of both historical fantasy and vampires will love TRANSCENDENCE, despite the fact that neither are between it's pages. With just the right mix of mythology, adolescent love, and adventure, Omololu's story was both thought provoking and entertaining. While I would have liked a climax that reli...
