The Hypnotist by M.J. Rose

4.0

Since this is the third in the series, I was a bit apprehensive about reading it because I was afraid that I would have missed so much from the first two books that I would be lost. Luckily, that didn't happen. At the very beginning, I felt like I was perhaps missing a few pieces of the puzzle, but I don't think that I missed out on anything essential. I will definitely be picking up the first two books (The Reincarnationist and The Memorist) in the series though! It took me a few chapters to get in to this book, but once I did, I didn't want to put it down. I thought the premise was fascinating and loved getting to read about the past lives of Lucian Glass. It was nice to have that mix of historical fiction thrown in with the mystery/thriller. My favorite thing about the whole book though, was how well all of the parts fit together. The different past lives of each of the characters melded so well with the other character's past lives and that was what had me hooked. I wanted to find out what was going to happen next and how everything would turn out, even from events that had happened centuries before. Overall, I thought this was a great book and very well written.
