Jen Amazon Review

This is a great book if you like mythical paranormal type of books. Favorite part of the book is the female character standing up for what she believes in and not letting people push her to far. The book is very well written there isn’t a dull moment between the characters in the book. Also the female in the book is sassy which I can relate to so it makes it an interesting read.

Pleasent read, depending on what kind of books you devour in your own time this one was entertaining and light.

Fantasy Books Amazon Review

Character progression and development are two big selling points for me when I take the time to read any novel. J.L. Harms clearly has a gift for achieving this. The story of The Essence has creatures and encounters that fill your imagination well. This tall tale leaves you wanting more and I, for one, am really excited to know that there's more follow. It's official: J.L. Harms is now on my watchlist.

Gina Rankin Amazon Review

"Captivating, suspenseful and adventurous" This was a very engaging story from start to finish - well to the finish of book 1 which definitely left me wishing I had already purchased books 2 and 3! The characters are easy to visualize thanks to the excellent character development and unique storyline. This is a fanciful, mysterious and adventurous novel that, as a former Librarian, I can see young adults as well as us older adults will enjoy reading.

Melissa Amazon Review

The Essence is a great young adult novel about a teen girl’s journey in finding her true self. Scarlett is a relatable character. She is a teenager that will give you flashbacks of your own teenage angst years. Harms adds a new element of the preconceived fantasy type literature. Her lore continues to expand through out the book. A very quick read for someone who is wanting to dabble into the Hidden World. One person found this helpful

Bobby T Billman Amazon Review

Loved Scarlett's story progress. Tragedy early followed by an attempt at reconciling and getting lost in the characters she meets along the way. Harms does a great job creating a story with creatures and fables that are familiar, with a pleasant twist at unexpected times. Fairy tale feels without the need for tropes on what you expect to happen. Excited to see what Harms is going to do next.

"No Spoiler Review - So freaking good" J.L Harms has a great flair for character development and details. The details she provides about Scarlett’s life is captivating. I can’t wait to start on book 2 in the series, The Blooded!

Jane E Amazon Review

"In Love!" Every aspect of this book, from the development of the characters to the interactions Scarlett had within the mystical world, had me sitting on the edge of my seat! I can't wait to pick up JL Harms next book!

Angelic Amazon Review

"Beautiful intriguing world" For a self published author the characters and the world she created sucked me in. I soon found myself asking so many questions about this fae world, refreshing and different than other books I've read.
