Though I appreciate "Fountain of Youth" themed stories, there is a danger that these tales can become cliche'. I was pleasantly surprised with Insensible Loss. I thought the plot was made more interesting with the volunteer who was caring for an ailing older man in a hospital. The man wasn't telling his story, she was reading it to him out of strange book that was on his person upon arriving at the facility. I do not know if the author intended for the reader to dislike Morgana, one of the tale's main characters, but I straight away did not care for her. I know it was different times but I didn't like her desire to try eating dolphin at the early point in the story. Not to spoil, but perhaps I was quite justified in thinking ill of her from the very beginning. I wondered throughout how this book would end and I was surprised and pleased with the way it wrapped up. Thank you to the kindness of the author, who allowed me an early look at this book. I'm apologize the review was delayed. I would highly recommend this book and author. In fact, I already have! ( )

I won this book on librarything.com in exchange for a review .

A bit confusing but still a great read ( )

Awesome read! Very intriguing story line that shows you should be careful what you wish for. It shows how one lifetime is more than enough for most people and that some people will never be satisfied, no matter how much they are given or how much they obtain. ( )
