Open Minds
I never know what to expect with a new to me author. I liked the synopsis when I read it and was intrigued by the premise. This book far exceeded my expectations. I really enjoyed it. Open Minds is a very well written YA novel. I liked the world that the author has created. Most of the world population becomes a "reader" some time in their teens. Imagine being able to read everyone's mind. Most people don't even talk out loud anymore. For Kira, the change doesn't seem to be coming. She is facing life as zero, someone who is not considered normal anymore. Boy was she wrong. Once she finds out the truth about herself, she isn't sure who to trust or how to keep those that she loves protected.
There is a little something for every reader packed into this novel. I loved the ending and had I not known it was part of a trilogy, I would have been very happy with the way it ended. I love when an ending makes me sigh. I look forward to see what the future has in store for Kira and her loved ones.
