A review by mythandmagic
The Watchmaker's Doctor by G.M.T. Schuilling

4.0

I enjoyed this thought-provoking journey into a young woman’s past. The story was quite short, however; while the content was entertaining, there wasn't as much action as I thought there would be. It felt like at the end, the story had only just begun. It was interesting to see how the choices we make affect our lives and those of others. Yet, we cannot avoid destiny – those who are destined to die cannot be saved. I like the way the protagonist’s vulnerability is portrayed. A victim of bipolar disorder, she has her moments, but she also feels for those around her. Upon being given a chance to relive her life up until her date of death, Anaya learned much and helped others along the way. This made the story a heartwarming one as well as an interesting look at what makes us human. (I received a free copy of this book through a contest.)
