Mindspeak

De: Heather Sunseri

Narrado por: Amy Landon

She was created for a purpose so revolutionary, someone was willing to kill for it.

Seventeen-year-old Lexi Matthews keeps two secrets from her elite boarding school classmates - she's the daughter of a famous and controversial geneticist, and she can influence people's thoughts.

But after new student Jack DeWeese heals her broken arm with an anything-but-simple touch, he forces Lexi to face a new reality - her abilities reach much further than speaking to the minds of others.

After Lexi's father goes missing and she receives threatening emails, she can't decide whether to fall into Jack's arms or run and hide.

As Lexi seeks answers to what she and Jack are, she discovers a truth more unsettling than anything her science books can teach. And letting Jack into her life of secrets is not only a threat to her very existence, but it just might break her heart wide open.

Ends in the middle of the story.

This story does not come to a conclusion in this book. Be warned that you will need to get a sequel in order to continue the story.

Book is better

I remember reading this years ago and I really liked it. Audible, not so much. The narrator is fine, it's not that. It's how she's portrayed. She sounds like a brat. So much cringe...

Main character doesn't react appropriately

The concept behind this story is intriguing and toward the end, it got better. In fact I'll read the next in the series because of it, but the heroine in the story drove me crazy most of the book. A weak, whiny girl who is confused and fighting herself most of the story has a lot of bad things happen. She overreacts to most of it and underreacts to the rest. The narrator did a nice job performing the book.

Intriguing

The story adds mystery, espionage and little romance. I live storys that have reluctant heros. When the teenage girls father is killed, she learns she is a clone and the world is turned on its heel. She has several panic attacks. Then no one around are what they seem. Someone tries to kill her, while others want to control her. The narrator was great with her voice , really personalizing the characters. I will continue with this series.

Interesting storyline

I have never read or listened to a book like this one. I was on the edge of my seat almost the whole time. On to the next one!!

Good start to new series

I enjoyed this book. There were twists, turns, and a bit of romance. Some of the stuff that happened was a little hard to believe (it's sci-fi after all) but I can't wait to see what the rest of the series has in store for us.

Not worth the time.

The story tries to hard. The love happens unnaturally quick & with a lack of any substance. Most the “mystery” comes from a ridiculously convenient naivety, that just left me, as a reader, confused.

whole series to final ending.

good narration but you have to read the whole series to get true final satisfaction.

Had potential but…

While I realize this is a YA book, the indecisiveness of the main character and all the vacillation really got annoying. I had to finish it however, because I really wanted to know what happened. It was sort of a science fiction book, ruined by an annoying protagonist and a romance that took away from the storyline, rather than adding to it.
With that said, the storyline could be fun to read and it might be thrilling and fun for the age group it is aimed toward. While I like YA occasionally, I don’t fall within that group. I am giving it three stars. I assume the books get better, since there seems to be many books in the series and I did like the premise. It will probably be unappealing to readers outside the Age group.

Mindspeak

This is the story of a very talented young lady who doesn't yet know powers.
