Clarity by Kim Harrington

3.0

"Clarity" was a quick, entertaining read. I enjoyed the fact that it was a mystery with a twist - a teenage girl with the ability to see the past by touching objects belonging to others. When a girl is murdered in her small coastal town, Clare works with the son of the police detective and her ex-boyfriend to determine the truth behind her death. I think the premise of the book was interesting, because the author spun Clare's ability as more of a family inheritance rather than a superpower and the story never strayed into paranormal romance.

Clare "Clarity" Fern, the lead character, served well as a narrator, but overall was not a very deep character. The book was short, had a decent premise, and held my interest, but I had determined the truth behind the mystery long before the characters in the story did, and was finished with the book very quickly. It is not a book I would read again, but it was not a waste of time, either. I would recommend it for anyone looking for a light, entertaining mystery.
