(coming soon!)
Two people who leave a comment on this post will receive their very own hardcover copy of CLARITY by Kim Harrington! Curious about what this book is about?
Clarity “Clare” Fern sees things. Things no one else can see. Things like stolen kisses and long-buried secrets. All she has to do is touch a certain object, and the visions come to her. It’s a gift. And a curse. When a teenage girl is found murdered, Clare’s ex-boyfriend wants her to help solve the case—but Clare is still furious at the cheating jerk. Then Clare’s brother, who has supernatural gifts of his own, becomes the prime suspect, and Clare can no longer look away. Teaming up with Gabriel, the smoldering son of the new detective, Clare must venture into the depths of fear, revenge, and lust in order to track the killer. But will her sight fail her just when she needs it most?
Kim Harrington lives in Massachusetts with her husband and son. She has no psychic powers and is cool with that. Clarity is her debut novel. Visit her online at www.kimharringtonbooks.com.
You can also find her on Facebook and Twitter.

I think I would view them as a gift

Probably as gifts, though at her age I bet I would have seen them more as a curse.
ReplyDeleteEmail is dmryherd at gmail dot com
I can see why this would be a gift but I think I'd end up thinking of it as a curse because she doesn't get to choose to see this and she probably sees a lot of negative stuff.

A gift. I think anything that can help others is a gift.
ReplyDeleterieconley@gmail.com
Can I choose yes? As in, something like that would always be a double edged sword. Truth is a dangerous thing and secrets are even more dangerous.

A gift! I would put my gift to good use for sure :)

Oh I've been dying to read this!!!
ReplyDeleteAs to the powers, I think I would view them as a curse, depending on how much control I had over them. I like going through life not knowing a bunch of stuff about other people.

I think it would be a curse. Almost everything around us has been touched. You wouldn't ever be able to touch anything without seeing something. It would not be a great way to live. I would love to read the book.
ReplyDeletetwoofakind12@yahoo.com
I think a curse. It would be hard to see all those things and know how to deal with them.

I really want to read this book. Please enter me in contest. Tore923@aol.com
ReplyDeleteFrom this perspective as a reader, they'd be a gift, but actually having them would probably be a curse.
ReplyDeleteoreo_93 at hotmail dot com
This book sounds great. I've been wanting to read this.
ReplyDeleteI think powers can be a gift but depending on how they affect you, they can be a curse as well.
juliecookies(at)gmail.com
I really like the sound of this book.
ReplyDeleteWhile I think learning about things would be interesting, it would be a gift only if I could control it. Seeing the history of just about everything I touched would be overwhelming.

I think having her powers would be cool. You could see past the things people want you to see. Sometimes, this could be construed as a curse. Lots of negative energy out there. I think I would rather have it than not.
ReplyDeleteDana19018@gmail.com
Forgot to mention that I tweeted the contest.

I'd probably view it as a gift at first, but as I saw more and more disturbing things, it would likely turn into a curse.
ReplyDeleteb(dot)cardone(at)hotmail(dot)com
Now I would probably see them as gifts but at that age they would have been a curse.
ReplyDeletesgiden at verizon.net
I don't think I'd want to know people secrets, because there might be someone else with the same gift who knew yours!
ReplyDeleteashhadans@hotmail.com
This looks like a book that is definately going to be on my TBR list... I would have to say that I would view Clare's ablility as more of a curse overall. To never be able to touch something without being invaded by visions from some one else, to feel the same feelings as another had at one time, and not to mention how much you would be asked to help with other people's problems/ deaths/ mysteries; Clare probably can never have a peaceful carefree day to enjoy things on her own! But still sounds like a sweet read though!!!

I want to read this book so bad. I could see it as both depending on the situation.
ReplyDeletethepiratesbounty@gmail.com
Although it would be cool to instantly know the history of an object, I wouldn't want to be privy to that many secrets. I most definitely think it would be a curse!!
ReplyDeletebasicallyamazingbooks [at] gmail.com
I could see it as being both, but I'd consider it a gift more.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to read it. Thanks so much for the chance!

I think I'd view them as a gift - and hope I could do some good with them.

Hi,
ReplyDeleteI think her abilities have good points and bad points..I think at times they will be to her a blessing others a curse..But I would choose to have them for I am sure the overall benefits outweigh the negatives..or I pray they would..
Thank you for this chance..
Good Luck to all..

* Sorry forgot to say I see it as both..A curse and a gift..
ReplyDeletebaby_blackroze@yahoo.com
The gift would be seen as an assest or detriment depending on the circumstances. However, being so young maybe I'd see it as a curse at that age.

I would see any supernatural ability as a gift.
ReplyDeletejguldy at yahoo dot com
I would have to say I'd view it as a gift. At first it would probably feel like a curse, but once I got used to it and grew with it I'm sure I'd level out.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the fabulous giveaway.

Probably a curse. It would be a big distraction, and a lot to hide. I would like helping people with it though.

Thanks!
I think if I had her abilities, I would definitely view it as a gift.
ReplyDeleteI tweeted the giveaway.

If it was something that just happened unexpectedly I would see it as a curse. I would not like to have visions like that happening all the time and not having any control over where or when it happens.

I think I would see it as a gift, however if people started wanting to use me for my powers I would consider it a curse. Also it might be a curse at times when you'd prefer not to know!

I would definitely use it for good, but it brings with it a serious responsibility and I can't imagine the things you would learn and have to decide what to do with said information. Heavy.

ReplyDeleteIf I had her powers, I'd do my best to see it as a blessing, but would probably sometimes feel cursed, as well.

I think it would be a curse as you have to touch so many things in a days time, and I'm sure most objects have a "history" tied to them. I realize the ability has the potential to do a lot of good, but to keep my sanity intact I would only want it if I could shut it off by wearing gloves or something similar.
ReplyDeletekclapsadl at gmail dot com
I would consider it a gift if you could shut it on and off whenever you want to otherwise it would be a curse in my eyes.

A curse to me instead of a gift. gfc follower.
ReplyDeleteOoh, that's tough. I think I'd view them initially as a curse but then I'd warm up to it and learn to use it to my advantage.

ReplyDeleteI would say having powers like that would be a gift if you had control over when you could use them. There are some things I just wouldn't wait to seen/know. I would use those powers to help people as much as I could.

A gift, but I don't think I'd be showing them off too much.
ReplyDeletemeredithfl at gmail dot com
I think it would be both a blessing and a curse, all rolled into one. I mean, I would be glad that I had it and all. But, I also think that it would definitely take some toll and some getting used to having to live with it.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I've been dying to get my hands on a copy of this book and would do just about anything for it. So, I think it's super fantastic that you're being nice enough to host a giveaway like this. :)

I think it would be both a curse and a gift. It could help people in some ways but hurt them as well.

wow. I don't know if I would want it or not. It would be a burden to know everyones secrets.
ReplyDeleteAlthough, i really do like to help people and could see how such a gift could make the world a better place.

I think it would take someone very special for this to be a blessing for everyone else it would be a curse!
