April 28, 2004: Insight is a thrill-a-minute, ride by the seat of your pants story, and one I couldn't put down until I'd read the last page and knew the final conclusion! The portrayal of Samantha, a blind woman and her psychic connection with Rachael whom she has never met was at times terrifying, and others heartwarming. I especially loved the way the connection was brought out through the use of dreams, and how the they each were able to experience the other's life in this fashion. It was believable in a way that helped the reader understand that such things might be possible in real life. All the characters in this novel were real and down-to-earth, and all had a voice, even Dex Samantha's seeing eye dog. I really liked this as many authors are not able to juggle multiple characters and personalities with the kind of finesse that Ms. McGee does. In addition to being believable, another characteristic of Ms. McGee's characters are that they are very human, as the reader you are able to see both the good and the bad in all the characters even the ones we might see as being really 'bad.' I would classify this novel as a Romantic Suspense with a dash of mystery thrown in. All in all it was an extremely enjoyable read and I would recommend it to anyone who likes unusal stories that have a paranormal twist. Ms. McGee made me believe this story was possible in real life!!
