Rating: 4 out of 5

Morgan Mandel is a very talented writer who has come up with an intriguing and unique plot. She kept me turning the pages but "Forever Young, Blessing or Curse" was unlike any book I've ever read for two reasons.First, the subject matter. The main character, Dorrie, through a chain of unfortunate events, has to make the decision whether or not to try the Forever Young pill, which her husband had been working on before his untimely death. She opts to take the pill and, because of her decision, her life becomes a terrifying roller coaster ride.Second, I'm accustomed to reading novels (even novels in a series) with an ending that resolves the problem or, at the very least, leaves me satisfied. As I got closer and closer to the end, I couldn't imagine how the author would tie up all the loose ends by the end of the book. And she didn't. The next book in her series will pick up where this one left off. Will Dorrie escape her enemies and clear her name? Will she and Steve rekindle their romance? I'm sure the answers to those and many other questions will be revealed in the sequel.
