Review of Antecedent by Susan Stumpf 

5 stars

Reviewed by Donna

I loved how Susan Stumpf put own her twist on paranormal events and characters that made a great story called, “Antecedent”.  I was able to read this story really quickly.  I loved how the story just kept moving with a variety of up and downs, twist and turns!  The banter that came from the characters were was hysterical.  I loved all the characters and their various personalities that they brought to the story.  I loved the story how it started out simple and just got more complicated towards the end.  It was always very clear as to what was going in the story!  I think the only thing I did not like was how open ended it was on the last page.

I loved how the author got right into the story on the very first page and not chapters later.  The story was simple but became complex in all the details that were added.  All the emotions and feelings that developed in the story were definitely details that added to the complexity of the story.  There were all kinds of love exhibited in this story.  I am not sure which I felt worse for! Li and Wu, Esther, Em, and or Bo.  I felt like I had my heart broken along with the characters.  Hopefully, Em will figure things out and make the right decisions that will not get her killed.

I loved the cover of this book!  I think it represented so much of the story!!!!!! I think the story should get 5 stars without a doubt.  Dialogue was AWESOME,  characters were funny and charismatic, descriptions written by the author were phenomenal, and the visual that was created through the words was EXCEPTIONAL!
