PARALLEL VISIONS: A TEEN PSYCHIC NOVEL (Book 1) ![]() Parallel Visions: A Teen Psychic Novel Book Oneīy award-winning author of SCARS and HUNTED ![]() ![]() ![]() You don’t realize it until the end and that may just be me because I am not used to these kinds of reads but it makes you stop to process what just happened. The ending was interesting and the entire tale reminded me a lot like the Twilight Zone series from the 60’s or Goosebumps from the 90’s but with a modern twist. I laughed a lot at Charlie’s social issues and failure to pick up on clues that people just didn’t want to talk to him. I thought Vincent did a wonderful job on capturing this type of character in Charlie. I strongly believe that you shouldn’t hate the author or give a bad review just because you do not like the character. Some of the reviews I read on Amazon contributed the annoying part as overkill on the authors part but if you have never truly known anyone like this than you just couldn’t understand. ![]() ![]() ![]() Even though Charlie is annoying its only a 15 page read so you don’t have to commit to him that long.

The character, Charlie, is absolutely annoying. I got this short story for free on Amazon. This is the most important day of Charlie’s life, and he is running late.
