Rendition In Favor Of Books Intrinsical (The Yara Silva Trilogy #1)
Sixteen-year-old Yara Silva has always known that ghosts walk alongside the living. Her grandma, like the other females in her family, is a Waker, someone who can see and communicate with ghosts. Yara grew up watching her grandmother taunted and scorned for this unusual ability and doesn't want that to be her future. She has been dreading the day when she too would see ghosts, and is relieved that the usually dominant Waker gene seems to have skipped her, letting her live a normal teenage life. However, all that changes for Yara on her first day at her elite boarding school when she discovers the gene was only lying dormant. She witnesses a dark mist attack Brent, a handsome fellow student, and rushes to his rescue. Her act of heroism draws the mist's attention, and the dark spirit begins stalking her. Yara finds herself entrenched in a sixty-year-old curse that haunts the school, threatening not only her life, but the lives of her closest friends as well. Yara soon realizes that the past she was trying to put behind her isn't going to go quietly.Rating About Books Intrinsical (The Yara Silva Trilogy #1)

This book burts forth like a bull from a gate. Lani doesn't hold back on getting the story moving right away. Yara's journey of acceptance is masterfully laid out over the course of the novel with plenty of twists and turns along the way. The sensory details are amazing, and the way she incorporates the orange groves into the story is thrilling for anyone familiar with Corona to read, since it's such a part of the local history. It's refreshing to read a book with a female lead who starts outI accidently learned about this book while surfing through goodreads website and found the plot summary very intriguing. But after reading this book what I felt was something I have never felt for any other books and that is the feeling of an amnesiac. The moment I finished reading the book I forgot even reading it in the first place. The story is such a cliche that it gave a distinct impression as watching an episode of "Ghost Whisperer". The lead Yara Silva has the power to talk to the dead
Ive been meaning to read this story for a while. Every time I look at that gorgeous cover, I wonder what the heck took me so long? Many review requests, my own writing Either way, I will remember in the future when a book is calling to me to be read, to drop everything and just read it! I was almost angry with family and friends for pulling me away while reading. I didnt want to stop.Sixteen-year-old Yara is an amazing character. Right from the beginningwhich is breath-holding-ly excitingshe was
Chilling, fast paced and haunting.I have to say this novel is NOT one you can read while tired, or with other things on your mind, there's WAY to much going on and if you miss something, it can really hurt the story...I wanted to finish last night but after having to reread things, I decided to give up and finish during the light of day. It's intricate details are amazing - this plot is one of the best one's I have ever read, so thought out, each "element" fitting precisely in the correct place
4.5 starsUnique, creepy and completley absorbing! Loved the surprising twists and these charcacters and the writing are remarkable!Need.Indelible.Now!...better review later.
Intrinsical started out pretty good, even if it was quite predictable.There was some creepy scenes, and Yara seemed like an okay character.Though, as the story progressed, Yara started acting annoying, and moments popped up where all i could think was "really?!"The twist about halfway through the book was quite good, i didn't see it coming. However, shortly after, Yara and Brent started playing volleyball, and i just didn't get why. It wasn't exactly the best time to be messing around. The twist
Intrinsical is one of the most engaging and fast-paced novels I have read. Every single page made me want to keep reading and I hated when I was too busy to do so. Lani Woodlands writing is beautiful and fresh. Her descriptions are well-written, never over the top, and create such vivid images. She has given Yara, the main character, a funny, beautiful, and realistic voice that makes the narration all the more enjoyable.Ms. Woodland wastes no time throwing the reader into the story and letting
