I enjoyed this quick little read, mostly because it was quite the interesting concept on the balances of good and evil in the world. The characters were likable and the action was there. It was short so I do look forward to seeing how the author develops the plot and the characters in the continuation of the series.

so-so

I was given a free copy of the ebook in exchange for an honest review.
Essence by Hayley Gabrielle is a fantastic adventure set in another dimension that is closely tied to Earth. The plot was very interesting and I really enjoyed the different personalities of the Essences, though the story as a whole was a little lackluster. With a bit more depth and worldbuilding, this concept could have been a 5/5, but I think my honest score would be 3.75/5.
