Morium Book One of the Young Adult Supernatural Trilogy eBook SJ Hermann Claudette Melanson

What a brilliant and well written book. It is clearly evident of how well S. J. Hermann writes when you read this book, you too will see just how well.

With realistic characters, supernatural horror and of course what the entire book is about ‘bullying’ with all the super cool stuff as extra’s.

I personally know what I would do if I’d been a victim to the same type of bullying, and then to get a supernatural power. As much as I hate to admit it, I would probably seek revenge. One of my own children is the victim of being bullied and this story really hit me hard.

The three teenagers within the story are all very well hashed out, so realistic it would be like taking a step back into the past and meeting them in a school hallway.

When the teenagers find out that a particular rock has given them powers, it is really a matter of do they or don’t they. I can’t tell you the story or it will spoil it, so you’ll have to read this for yourself. It is well worth it.

Terrific story, one that was hard to put down. No matter what your age is, this book is for everyone.

Morium Book One of the Young Adult Supernatural Trilogy eBook SJ Hermann Claudette Melanson Reviews

I don't want to spend too much time writing this review, because I'm so anxious to start the next book in this series. This is a fascinating study in human nature. I particularly like how the author has introduced us to TWO characters living under similar circumstances, then given them both the same supernatural "opportunity". These are beautifully flawed characters that ultimately head in very different directions...and exciting conflict ensues. I was fascinated by my own response to it - how I could relate to both characters along the way, agreeing with their actions at times, disagreeing at others. I could see their immaturity, so it made it easier to forgive poor choices, but by the end of the book you see what each little decision and mis-step has created and it really gives you pause. It's a fast, easy, fast-paced, addicting read, but - warning - it isn't meant to stand alone. It ends abruptly with a perfect set-up for the next in the series, Dark Horizons. Also, be advised there is some foul language, but nothing I was distracted by - it seemed a natural, realistic usage for the teen characters. There is some violence (mildly to moderately gory in description), and rape (not graphically described). In the beginning I hoped that mistakes/poor decisions made by our beloved main characters wouldn't lead to anything that "couldn't be apologized for". I was disappointed, at first, when things clearly got violently out of hand. I quickly realized, however, that that's the reality of life, the reality of human nature. "I'm sorry" won't always be enough...as I'm sure our character Nathan will learn (or, at least, I HOPE he will learn). He was responding to the intoxicating power of something supernatural, but what about in the "real world" when these kids are responding to the power of freedom? The power of superior physical strength? The power of social standing? We saw, in the beginning of the book, how other characters had responded to that power - by bullying. Nathan, unfortunately, makes the same ultimate choice. We also see that hiding from our power, or ignoring it, can be - arguably - just as destructive or damaging. While Nathan has some serious lessons to learn, so does Lexi. Please excuse me while I run off to see what happens next!
Sadly there has always been bullying in human societies, though it seems to be on the increase in recent years. Morium by S.J. Hermann is a novel about this ugly phenomenon, how three teens deal with it, and more.

When I began this novel I was not expecting such a unique take on the bullying issue or the surprising turn of events when two of the teens happened upon a strange green glow and followed it to discover it coming from a pair of weird space rocks.

The main characters are compelling and easy to empathize with and care about, while the rest of the characters are all very easy to relate to and realistic. The story flows quickly and naturally and held my rapt attention from the first to the last page. The plot has quite a number of surprises and twists and turns, and is absorbing and realistic.

I have no idea how this trilogy will turn out, but I am certainly looking forward to reading the next two books and finding out. I do highly recommend Morium to audiences in general.
I teach high school. I see bullying in action all the time, and it comes in many forms. It's easy to identify bullying when it includes physical violence or outright name calling or put downs. Hermann brings to light the "kill 'em with kindness" bully-- the one who goes out of her way to say hi or compliment their victim. To an outsider, it looks like kindness. To the bully and her victim, it's nastiness to draw negative attention to the victim while confusing outsiders. As a teacher, it is hard to fight this bully. "You can't tell me I can't say hi." This book provides an excellent glimpse into the agony of being bullied as well as the negative view the bully has of himself or herself.

I also more clearly understand what drives people to cut themselves. I finally see that emotional anguish is like a migraine. It hurts like hell, but if you bark your shin on the coffee table, you forget about your headache for a while. Lexi will help you to understand just how much pain a teen can feel and how a razor blade can release or mask some of that anguish.

The book is well written and entertaining as well, but the power of the message is the reason to read this book.
