Book Review: Mind Games by Kiersten White

I think I'm going to love this series just as much as I loved the Paranormalcy series. While there isn't as much humor in this one as there was Paranormalcy, it's just pretty awesome. It's also like Paranormalcy in the paranormal sense with Seers, Readers and Feelers. All these girls stuck in this supposed school where they end up being used for bad things, theft, espionage, etc. Then you have Fia who isn't like the others, but is paranormal in her own sense - she cannot make a wrong decision. Or, well, she can, but she has an uncanny sense of what is right in any given situation. It seems like those kind of instincts would be better than any of the others - seeing the future, reading minds or knowing how those around you feel. That just makes her super awesome, and I have a hard time remembering that she's only 17 years old. The poor girl has been through so many bad experiences, some of her own making. Such a great story though, and the last 10% of the book....I have to say, I didn't see it coming. I can't wait to read the next installment.

Definitely a movie worthy book.

From the GoodReads website, "Fia was born with flawless instincts. Her first impulse, her gut feeling, is always exactly right. Her sister, Annie, is blind to the world around her—except when her mind is gripped by strange visions of the future. 

Trapped in a school that uses girls with extraordinary powers as tools for corporate espionage, Annie and Fia are forced to choose over and over between using their abilities in twisted, unthinkable ways…or risking each other’s lives by refusing to obey.

In a stunning departure from her New York Times bestselling Paranormalcy trilogy, Kiersten White delivers a slick, edgy, heartstoppingly intense psychological thriller about two sisters determined to protect each other—no matter the cost."
