The Seven Rays

by Jessica Bendinger

Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers | November 24, 2009 | Hardcover

You are more than you think you are.

THAT IS THE ANONYMOUS MESSAGE that Beth Michaels receives right before she starts seeing things. Not just a slept-through my-alarm-clock, late-for-homeroom, haven''t had-my-caffeine-fix kind of seeing things. It all starts with some dots, annoying pink dots that pop up on and over her mom and her best friend''s face. But then things get out of control and Beth is seeing people''s pasts, their fears, their secrets, their desires. The images are coming at Beth in hi-def streaming video and she can''t stop it. Everyone thinks she''s crazy and she''s pretty sure she agrees with them. But crazy doesn''t explain the gold envelopes that have started arriving, containing seeing keys and mysterious tarot cards. To Beth, it all seems too weird to be true. You are more than you think you are? But here''s the thing: What if she is?

    Original Ray of Sunshine

    The idea for this new teen book is very original, I've never run across anything like it before.

    Elizabeth Ray Michaels receives a gold note that is addressed to Aleph Beth Ray and it reads, You Are More Then You Think You Are.

    Strange? You bet!

    But Beth thinks she can't possibly be the real recipient of this strange note, until she starts having problems with her vision. Suddenly there are ropes, strings, knots and goopy things floating around people she sees. It doesn't take this genious long to figure out a lot of the lines appear because of what the people they are attached to are thinking or feeling so she christians the odd phenomina feelsees (feeling and seeing).

    She's got enough problems with graduating early, getting ready for college, and crushing on an older boy so Beth thinks a quick trip to the eye doctor will fix her sight problems.

    It doesn't work, it makes it worse and then everything Beth knows explodes into chaos!


    Great characters, great plot and great new idea, the only problem that kept this one from a full five leaves was the way the book ended. If there is a sequel (which I have not yet heard there will be) then it's a decent enough ending, if not then the ending in my opinion was incredibly anti-climactic.

    Read it with my blessing!
