Touched started with a promising beginning.I really liked its original plot.It's something I rarely read which made the book more intriguing.

Ever since he was born,Nick's head has been "inundated" with what he calls memories but little does he know,is predictions of his alternative futures.Nick picks a future and then follows every detail his memories have shown.If he,however,changes something,then his future changes as well and usually for the worse.If he makes a mistake or forgets to to do something then he is swapped by images of his future,which isn't just one but but many.In order to be able to fuction again he must choose one and follow the above steps.

There are also times that he can't tell the difference of what's real and what's not,with result to mention things that haven't occured yet.

All these change,when Taryn comes into his life.With just a touch,the voice inside his head stops and he feels normal again.Taryn and her grandmother possess the Book of Touch,which allows Nick to to see the future.Why has Taryn come into his life now?Can Nick protect the people around him by changing his futureonce again???

I really liked this book.It made me realize how even our smallest actions affect our future.How our decisions influence both us and the people surrounding us.Touched is a book that will help you understand who and what you really what to become.


Blurb:

Nick Cross always listens to the voice in his head. Because if he doesn't? Things can go really, really wrong. Like the day he decided to go off script and saved a girl from being run over . . . and let another one drown. Trying to change the future doesn't work.

But this summer at the Jersey Shore, something's about to happen that Nick never could have predicted. He meets a girl named Taryn and finds out about the Book of Touch. Now the path that he thought he was on begins to shift . . . and there's no way to stop things from happening. Or is there?

In a life where there are no surprises, nothing has prepared Nick for what he's about to discover--or the choice he will be forced to make. . . .
