Instant Karma

By Marissa Meyer
Instant Karma by Marissa Meyer digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

In New York Times bestselling author Marissa Meyer's young adult contemporary romance, a girl is suddenly gifted with the ability to cast instant karma on those around her – both good and bad.

Chronic overachiever Prudence Barnett is always quick to cast judgment on the lazy, rude, and arrogant residents of her coastal town. Her dreams of karmic justice are fulfilled when, after a night out with her friends, she wakes up with the sudden ability to cast instant karma on those around her.

Pru giddily makes use of the power, punishing everyone from public vandals to mean gossips, but there is one person on whom her powers consistently backfire: Quint Erickson, her slacker of a lab partner. Quint is annoyingly cute and impressively noble, especially when it comes to his work with the rescue center for local sea animals.

When Pru resigns herself to working at the rescue center for extra credit, she begins to uncover truths about baby otters, environmental upheaval, and romantic crossed signals—not necessarily in that order. Her newfound karmic insights reveal how thin the line is between virtue and vanity, generosity and greed . . . love and hate… and fate.

Thumbs Up“Well I really struggled getting into this one. I really did not like Pru and it was pretty slow to start. In fact it wasn’t until I was a little more than half way through that I finally got interested and I think it was because 1 Pru was finally becoming a little more likeable and I was falling for Quint pretty hard. I did like the side characters, Ari, Jude and Ezra. By the end I did like Pru a lot better too. It was a little predictable as to what was going to happen. I kinda saw it all happening but it was still good. I did wish to find out what happened to Shauna and wish there was more about maybe the center finally getting more profitable but it kinda ended with the cutsie scene instead.”
