A Good Read for Any Age

Riding Out the Storm is a well-written, very readable story that deals with an unlikely subject for teenagers: reincarnation. While the main subject is handled well, the book is more than a story about reincarnation. The narrator is a self-described "plain," adopted 15-year-old living in a "normal" family--or perhaps not so normal, since it is a functional family, with a daughter who respects her parents, and parents who actually listen to their teenager. While dealing with the experience that leads to her hypnosis therapy and the discovery that she had a previous life, Emily goes on with her present life--riding the horse she loves, coping with a classmate who is the school bully, and handling conflicts with her best friend. The friend has a weight problem which she handles in a healthy way. The author knows how to weave a lot of insight into an interesting story. While it is clearly written for teenagers, the book is a good read for any age.
