Mind Games Review

Hey guys it’s Meagan and today I’m here with a review of Mind Games by Kiersten White.

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.-goodreads.com summery

I’d say that this is an okay one-time read, but I don’t see myself rereading it anytime soon. Don’t get me wrong, I did like this book, I just felt that it was lacking in some areas. For example, I felt like I didn’t know enough about the characters. There was nothing that got me attached to anyone, I felt like anyone could’ve died and I probably wouldn’t have cared.

Next, I wanna talk about Fia. There were times when I liked Fia but a lot of the time, I felt like she overreacted about things. I mean, I realize that her life sucks but she didn’t have to explode about everything. Next character I’m gonna talk about is James. I was not a big fan of James; I feel like he’s just using Fia. Of course, I might be wrong, but I just can’t trust him. I have a feeling that he has more power over his father than he’s saying. Now a character I liked was Adam. I felt like Adam was a good and caring character and I would like to see more of him. The book did also have some good action and that kept me reading.

Overall the book was Okay, but I was expecting a little more. If you own this book already I would say, give it a shot, you might just love it! If not, I would still give it a shot as long as you don’t mind bland characters. If bland characters are a turn-off for you, you have been warned. I will be reading the second book (eventually) and I’ll do a review of that too when I finish it!

Questions- Did you trust James? Thoughts on Adam? Do you agree that the characters were bland? Is the second one better?
