Author: Sarah Mlynowski
Genre: Contemporary/Paranormal
Release Date: March 11, 2014
"We weren't always like this. We used to be average New York City high school sophomores. Until our homeroom went for flu shots. We were prepared for some side effects. Maybe a headache. Maybe a sore arm. We definitely didn't expect to get telepathic powers. But suddenly we could hear what everyone was thinking. Our friends. Our parents. Our crushes. Now we all know that Tess is in love with her best friend, Teddy. That Mackenzie cheated on Cooper. That, um, Nurse Carmichael used to be a stripper.
Since we've kept our freakish skill a secret, we can sit next to the class brainiac and ace our tests. We can dump our boyfriends right before they dump us. We know what our friends really think of our jeans, our breath, our new bangs. We always know what's coming. Some of us will thrive. Some of us will crack. None of us will ever be the same.So stop obsessing about your ex. We're always listening." - Goodreads
THE STORY:
I had so much fun reading this book. The story is quick, fun, entertaining, and filled with a cast of quirky characters that keep the reader involved. Even though the writing isn't particularly outstanding, and neither is the plot, the whole situation was just so fun to read about. It was also interesting to get such a wide variety of thoughts and perspectives.
THE CHARACTERS:
There are far too many to talk about individually, but they were each so fun to get to know. Each and every character has its own personality that shines through, and it is never too difficult to tell them all apart. Obviously there will be certain characters that people will gravitate to as they read, (for me it was Olivia and Cooper), but all of them are great. I would love to read more about this great gang of characters.
MY THOUGHTS:
This book was so addicting, I had trouble putting it down. After having such a bad month of reading, this book was exactly what I needed. I had so much fun while reading this, and if there is ever another book released with this cast of characters, then I will definitely be picking it up.
STAR RATING: ★★★ 1/2
