Average Rating: 
Rating: - Much better than I thought it would be
Back To Salem is Marcoux's second book and is significantly better than her first, Facades. The improvement is so significant that I wonder how Marcoux managed to get so much better so quickly.
Back to Salem is a psychic, past life, karmic cycle, new-age thriller. Normally I don't read much of this stuff, but it was on the top of the pile. The plot is farfetched. Really farfetched.

Rating: - Good, but frustrating
Again, Marcoux puts out a thriller. Unfortunately, I got lost in the middle and put it down. I started again and finished it in one sitting.

Rating: - Enjoyable and Thought-Provoking Read...

Jessie Mercer is a successful writer who begins to have very real dreams of a past life as a man. In ... Read More

I read it about a year ago and was really lukewarm toward it. Parts were exciting but it didn't work as a whole. I can't believe it ended up getting some award nominations; there are some holes you can drive a truck through. Plus I didn't see how the Egyptian timeline meshed at all with the ... Read More
Rating: - Has It All
This one has it all, a clever MYSTERY, a heart-filled ROMANCE, some HISTORY, an exciting ACTION ADVENTURE, and some interesting metaphysical lessons. GREAT MOVIE material! An exceptional story that keeps the reader interested.
