Reviews
""This novel hits so many of my sweet spots: time travel, afterlife, a treasure hunt, twists, and a romance across time."" Lenore Appelhans, author of THE MEMORY OF AFTER and CHASING BEFORE ""Buehrlen's written a roller coaster of a novel that will have you holding on tight as you turn the pages. Get ready for ALEX to guide you on this twisty trip through time."" Chris Howard, author of the ROOTLESS series ""I never expected The Fifty-Seven Lives of Alex Wayfare to be as good as it was. Forget popular books like The Hunger Games & Twilight, M.G. Buehrlen's debut novel is something that every young adult fan should read."" - Bane of Kings, The Founding Fields ""It is addictive and completely unputdownable. M.G. Buehrlen has astounded me; she's a genius. I couldn't put this book down, couldn't stop. There's mystery and intrigue and about a thousand hints and red herrings to throw you off. This is the kind of book that needs to be read, book-club style, and talked about: ""what's going on?"", ""who did this?"" ""whyyyyy?!"" All this-and more. The 57 Lives of Alex Wayfare is a stunning novel that is expertly written and paced and presented and-and everything. This book is beautifully heart-breaking and inspiring and terrifying and meaningful. It will surprise and delight and astonish."" - Jet Black Ink ""I did not want this book to end, and will anxiously await the next book in the sequel! Looking for a good book? This YA sci-fi adventure is a good book!"" - Looking For A Good Book ""A fun, fast paced read...a wonderful debut novel, and I hope to see a sequel from this author soon."" - Avid Reviews ""The writing is superb as is the character development. The story-line will rivet until the wee hours of the morning, and thankfully, the novel is longer than most so you can make the enjoyment last a little longer. I want more of this story and more of this author."" - Koeur's Book Reviews
