Summary:

NEWSOUL
Ana is new. For thousands of years in Range, a million souls have been reincarnated over and over, keeping their memories and experiences from previous lifetimes. When Ana was born, another soul vanished, and no one knows why.

NOSOUL
Even Ana’s own mother thinks she’s a nosoul, an omen of worse things to come, and has kept her away from society. To escape her seclusion and learn whether she’ll be reincarnated, Ana travels to the city of Heart, but its citizens are suspicious and afraid of what her presence means. When dragons and sylph attack the city, is Ana to blame?

HEART
Sam believes Ana’s new soul is good and worthwhile. When he stands up for her, their relationship blooms. But can he love someone who may live only once, and will Ana’s enemies—human and creature alike—let them be together? Ana needs to uncover the mistake that gave her someone else’s life, but will her quest threaten the peace of Heart and destroy the promise of reincarnation for all?

Jodi Meadows expertly weaves soul-deep romance, fantasy, and danger into an extraordinary tale of new life.

Review:

Ahhh the cover I could stare at this forever, then die and be reincarnated and stare at some more. You will definitely be drawn with the cover, and I hope that you will be just as fascinated with what's inside as I am. Incarnate is an amazing fantasy story with a new and creative take on reincarnation. It's much more than a book about rencarnation there are a ton of mystical creature like...DRAGONS!

I personally loved Ana as a main charcter she was a great voice to read from and I could definitely connect with her shyness. The relationship between Ana and Sam was very well done they connect with eathother by music and the each take care of eachother/save eahother equally which I think adds strength the their relationship. I loved the idea that once they are reincarnated the remember their past lives and the aren't strictly one gender throughout every life. It might be a little weird to live though.. what if your personality is meant to be that of a girls and you're in the body of a boy?? But by far the most interesting thing about Incarnate is that all the souls existed since the beginning of time and they are the ones who created fire, music, weapons, ect. and remember doing it and a time when it never existed. The only complaint I can give to Incarnate is that the wasn't enough action in the middle, but the beginning and end were packed full of it.

Incarnate will stand out to reader by it's amazing and creative world that was created between the pages of that AMAZING cover, and fresh take on reincarnation. While reading it, it reminded me of Lord of the Rings. Incarnate has the epic and fantastical world with an epic adventure just like Lord of the Rings does. Jodi meadows really has a great imagination and I so happy that she has shared it with the world, Incarnate is a truly amazing book. I can't wait to see what happens next with Ana and Sam. I kind of have a crush on Sam. Get absorbed in this book just like I did and read it! I finshed in a matter of hours which is not like me at all.
