Reality is only an illusion.
Except for those who can control it…
Worst. Birthday. Ever.
My first boyfriend dumped me – happy birthday, Josie!- my dad is who knows where, I have some weird virus that makes me want to hurl, and now my ex is licking another girl’s tonsils. Oh, and I’m officially the same age as my brother was when he died. Yeah, today is about as fun-filled as the swamps of Dagobah. But then weird things start happening…
Like I make something materialize just by thinking about it.
When hot badass Reid Wentworth shows up on a motorcycle, everything changes. Like, everything. Who I am. My family. What really happened to my brother. Existence. I am Oculi, and I have the ability to change reality with my thoughts. Now Reid, in all his hotness, is charged with guiding and protecting me as I begin learning how to bend reality. And he’s the only thing standing between me and the secret organization that wants me dead…
Josie is just a normal girl, until her 17th birthday, when things start to go terribly wrong. Her life is forever changed and she will have to fight for her life. Josie is a geek who loves Sci-Fi, Star Trek, Star Wars, physics and some martial arts. She was homeschooled until recently. When Reid shows up on his motorcycle in all his good looks that looks exactly like Josie’s wish of a perfect guy at her school on her birthday, he gives her answers no one else ever did. Reid just is harboring some secrets of his own and little by little they come out. Now Josie will have to decide how to handle all that is given to her. And what is given her is a world with powers. She has to just learn how to unleash them.
I love how the story unfolds with Josie’s family life and all it’s geekiness there too, seeing how her mom is a genetic and neuro research doctor. It’s not your typical family. Then we have Reid and his secrets and how he cares for Josie. Then we have the side kicks,and side kicks are my whipped cream on the pie!
What I really laughed at was Josie’s expressions. She would make Yoda or Loki or Thor references and when she learns to Push things into reality,(because that is what Pushers do) she would push the references into reality and when she does, it had me laughing out loud and had my family giving me strange looks.
If you like Marvel Comics, geeks, physics, humor, paranormal, sci-fi, The Matrix, X-Men, Star Wars, Star Trek, and some romance then this might be for you!
