Short description

Sophie Sinora and her BFFs struggle to keep their strengthening paranormal powers secret while trying to fit in at school. Her teacher's suicidal thoughts, a threatening locker bully, a teasing school flirt, her hormonal pregnant sister, and the tension between Sophie and her friends, only add to her problems. Hopefully, she can fix them in time to save her teacher's life and her social life.

Extended description

After shedding 30 pounds of baby fat, Sophie Sinora has grown into a pretty, but insecure, teen in bloom. To make her life more complicated, Sophie can sometimes read minds.

Sophie's BFFs, AJ and Krysta, are also 'gifted' with paranormal abilities. Keeping their gifts secret proves difficult, as their powers are strengthening, making them feel more and more like freaks.

When Sophie falls for Jacob, she hopes he'll ask her out to the Freshman Formal. But when she's forced to cheat and lie for him, she wonders how far she'll have to go to make him like her. Add to her growing list of problems - her teacher's suicidal thoughts, a locker bully who wants to kick her butt, the hot school flirt who won't stop teasing her, her pregnant sister who boots Sophie out of her room, and the growing tension between Sophie and her best friends.

Sophie's got issues. Hopefully, she can fix them in time to save her teacher's life and her social life.

Recommended for: Young Adult
Read from February 22 to 23, 2013 — I own a copy, read count: 1

This is a great coming of age book for young adults. It deals with all the problems that kids making the transition from grade school to high school encounter especially if they are the youngest member of the family of high achieving girls, who have gone on to be both popular and successful in school and work. Daunting enough in those things alone, but add a weight problem during middle school with the attendant name calling, it's enough to make it an almost impossible mountain to climb, even though you have turned into a swan in the transition.
Even though our heroine has special talents that her steadfast friends enjoy as well, all of them have troubled home lives which shows that these extra gifts are not, in and of themselves enough to overcome the trials of emerging into the adult world. A great book that is thoughtfully written, by someone who I believe has probably experienced the pain that is portrayed here so vividly. This would be a nice gift to any teenager who is struggling with the normal drama that life throughs at them, that they feel their parents simply wouldn't understand. 5 Stars in my book without any hesitation.

This book was a great read. Even though it's focus is tween/teen age, I loved every minute of it. It threw me back to jr high and all the insecurites we felt and still feel as woman. The warped self image of a teen who lost weight but still thinks in "fat" mode, the bully who hogs your locker area until you've had enough and stand up to them, the jock you think you love who is really a jerk loser, the hottest guy in school who can "no way" REALLY like you, and then we have the three best friends who all have different paranormal abilities that are growing more intense. Can not wait to dive into A.J.'s story next!!!!!

This book was amazing. It was captivating in real life events (well, other than the paranormal events) of teenagers. Anyone who's been a teenage girl can relate to the story and the paranormal adds an extra spice. Can't wait to start the next book.

I actually read this to see if it would be appropriate for my daughters. I didn't expect to like it as much as I did. They come home from school and I hear about all the high school drama and I cringe. I'd never want to go through that again (seems like it's gotten way worse with the advent of the internet and social media). I really enjoy the trio and I'm already half-way through the second book. I hope the series continues past the third book. I'm telling my daughters how fun these books are and I'm hoping they'll like them as much as I did.
