The Book of Lost Fragrances is the latest in the reincarnation series. I really enjoyed the last one, The Hypnotist and reviewed it last year. I was really looking forward to this one. The premise sounded intriguing. I really wanted to love this one. But in the end, it was just OK for me.

I liked the premise of the story. The idea of past lives has always been interesting to me and did tie into the whole story nicely. I also liked the information about the history and art of making fragrances. But the pacing was off for me and I had a hard time getting through the story. There were too many changes in point of view and it felt disjointed at times. For me, there was too much packed into this book. While it wasn't my favorite read, I think there are likable parts to the story. I did enjoy the end and felt satisfied with how it ended. Try it out for yourself.
