Rose Garcia's *Final Life* is a decent read, hovering right around that middle ground. It’s not going to blow your mind, but it's also not a complete waste of time.

If you're looking for a quick and easy book review to inform your next read, this is it.
The plot of *Final Life* moves at a reasonable pace, keeping you engaged enough to want to see where it’s going, even...

Moving across the country during her senior year was a living nightmare for Dominique, until she met Infiniti. From that moment on, moving would be the least of her troubles, and it all started with a Ouija board and visions of a red desert, pure evil, and death… her own. Is she losing her mind, or is there more to this move, her parents, and their secrets than meets the eye?
Settle in, because this journey is more than just a teen, angst-filled fantasy. Learn about a race called Transhumans, t...

This was a truly fast-paced read. When I first started reading *Final Life* by Rose Garcia, I thought Dominique was a bit childish and acting petulantly. Sure, she moved, but did she need to be so nasty about it? Thankfully, she goes to a party, and everything changes. Cards are read, and the Red Desert images begin. Suddenly, you're transported into a world of evil and darkness. One that she doesn't quite understand until it's explained to her, and one that can kill her. With only one life left...

Final Life is yet another example of why I'm drawn to indie authors. Their books are hidden gems just waiting to be discovered. I'm so glad I had the chance to read this fascinating story and share my love for Final Life by Rose Garcia.
Rose Garcia has crafted a marvelous story with unique twists that pulled me in until the very last page. The idea of having multiple lives to "get it right" was captivating. I was so curious about what happened in those past lives and whether the protagonist wou...

I received *Final Life* in exchange for my honest review. This is book one of *The Transhuman Chronicles*. I was genuinely surprised by this novel; a lot happens, and the book is only 185 pages long! Dominique's family moves to a new state during her final year of high school. Not only is she the new girl in town, but her old friends have moved on without her. You can understand Dominique’s frustration at being lied to for so long by her parents as she struggles to understand what has been happe...

Dominique is 17, a senior in high school, and her parents have just moved her from Michigan to Houston. New school, no friends – it totally sucks. She meets Infiniti on Facebook, who happens to live right down the street and invites her to a party. That's when things really start to change. Ouija boards, Tarot cards, then visions she can't understand… it’s all more than she can handle. She meets Trent, who is seriously hot, and then her parents move in Farrell, who's the son of a friend, and he'...

I was immediately drawn in by Rose Garcia's *Final Life* from the moment I read the synopsis. The concept of 'soul lives' was particularly intriguing, and Garcia explains it beautifully, weaving it seamlessly into the narrative along with other fascinating elements. Right from the first chapter, you get a sense of something eerie and mysterious brewing. The central conflict that threatens Dominique and the others is creatively conceived, and I instantly needed to know more – this book is a defin...

I want to give a huge THANK YOU to AToMR for allowing me to be a part of this great tour. I've been reading a lot of different books lately, and when I received *Final Life* I was genuinely excited to dive in. The concept of the main character having nine lives in a completely new world really grabbed me.Dominique has moved from Michigan to Houston, and she's naturally nervous about starting at a new school and making friends. But when she gets to Houston, she starts to witness strange, unnatura...

Rose Garcia's 'Final Life' is a captivating and thought-provoking book that delves into the concept of Transhumans – a race that predates "normal" humans and possesses extraordinary abilities. These Transhumans are divided into the Pures and the Tainted, locked in a fierce war over the Marked One, whose destiny will determine the fate of both Earth and all Transhumans.
Unbeknownst to her, our protagonist, Dominique, is the prophesied Marked One. All she knows is that she's just moved to Houston...

Lately, I've been in a bit of a reading slump. It's not that I've been reading bad books, because I haven't, but I just haven't really been able to get into the last few books I've picked up. It took me way longer than usual to get through them. But I think I'm officially over my slump! I'm pretty excited about it, and I'm also super excited about Final Life by Rose Garcia. It was such a great read! I thought the pacing was perfect, the characters were well-developed, and the storyline was reall...
