Publisher's Summary:

This is the story of how we became freaks. It's how a group of I's became a we.

When Class 10B got their flu shots, they expected some side effects. Maybe a sore arm. Maybe a headache. They definitely didn't expect to get telepathy. But suddenly they could hear what everyone was thinking. Their friends. Their teachers. Their parents.

Now they all know that Tess has a crush on her best friend, Teddy. That Mackenzie cheated on Cooper. That Nurse Carmichael used to be a stripper. Some of them will thrive. Some of them will break. None of them will ever be the same.

A smart and funny story about friendship, first love and surviving high school from the best-selling author of Ten Things We Shouldn't Have Done.

Light read

The homeroom class of 10B is getting their flu vaccinations, but in a strange side affect they can hear each other's thoughts! Afterwords drama ensues. The blurb on the book cover reads "Secrets, scandals, and ESP" and that describes this book perfectly.

This is a fun read. It's really entertaining, and it just flies by quickly! At first the narration style is awkward reading, but soon enough I got used to it. Overall this is a just a light read to take your mind off things.

A fabulous storyline!

My daughter was so involved in the story, she begged me to buy the second book!

A Must Read

If you think flu shots are safe, think again! When a group of teens develop ESP after getting their flu shots at school, hilarity ensues. What I particularly liked was how the author wove segments of the plural 1st person POV ("we") into the narration while successfully managing to retain the individualism of each character. Secrets? No such thing. Gossip? Totally unnecessary. Don't Even Think About It is wildly entertainment and totally engaging. I highly recommend it.

Great book!

It was a great read. I would totally recommend it for teens 12 and above. An amazing page turner. Hope you like it too.

Great Book!!

I really loved this book, though I would definitely recommend it for 12+ for maturity. Can't wait for the sequel!!

Publisher's Summary:

War has begun. Arin is in the thick of it, with the East as his ally and the empire as his enemy. He's finally managed to dismiss the memory of Kestrel, even if he can't quite forget her. Kestrel turned into someone he could no longer recognize: someone who cared more for the empire than for the lives of innocent people - and certainly more than she cared for him. At least that's what he thinks.

But far north lies a work camp where Kestrel is a prisoner. Can she manage to escape before she loses herself?

As the war intensifies, both Kestrel and Arin discover unexpected roles in battle, terrible secrets, and a fragile hope. The world is changing. The East is pitted against the West, and Kestrel and Arin are caught between. In a game like this, can anybody really win?

Must-Read Conclusion to an AWESOME SERIES

With how the 2nd Book ended, I had serious doubts that Marie Rutkoski could deliver a satisfying end to the Winner's Trilogy.

But I'm glad to be wrong! Fans of the first two books should read this if only to see how the story ends. People who especially love the 1st book would (in my opinion) probably love this book for all the callbacks to The Winner's Curse.

Kestrel being kickass with her mind for strategy. Arin being badass for his leadership and knack for physical combat. Kestrel and Arin getting back together. These are some of the things one can expect from the book

As for the ending, I think the author did a great job in wrapping up the series.

So anyone who has read Books 1 & 2, I think you have every reason to finish the series!

Good but...

This is an enjoyable series with some good twists and turns, however it feels very stretched to make it three books. This final book has a satisfying conclusion, but things feel very dragged out with endless discussion of battles, walking to battles, waiting for battles etc. If you've read the first two, you'll probably get through this just to know the end of the story which has some good moments, but it's pretty tedious in other places.

great ending

i swear this book gave me a minni heart attack. i was overwhelmed with excitement and anxiety. what a great ending and what a fabulously written story. I loved it.

Greatness

Wonderful story, so enjoyable I listened to it in 1 day. I love Arin and Kestrel. I really liked the prince he was so funny and not annoying like some "funny" people in other books. But one thing! It's cacAYEdas not cacAHdas!!! But amazing book author must be very proud. Nice end to the trilogy, nothing untied.

Perfection

After the heart-wrenching and gut twisting saga that's book 2 of the series, this one brings it all to a very satisfying ending with no loose ends and everything I had wanted to happen. The romance and the friendships in this book are the substances that create euphoric delight. There are no one-dimensional characters (well maybe except for the emperor) and it was such a joy to watch the transformation of both Arin and Kestrel, who have been shaped by the events, and yet have never lost the essence of their true selves. Kestrel is the best heroine ever in a YA - brave, extremely clever, cunning, yet kind and compassionate.

Seventeen-year-old honors student Coretta White's Tumblr, Little White Lies - her witty thoughts on pretty much...everything - has gone viral. She's got hundreds of thousands of followers; she's even been offered a TV deal. But Coretta has a secret. She hasn't been writing all her own posts.

Stressed from the demands of the sudden attention, she hired an expert ghostwriter, 41-year-old Karl Ristoff, to keep the Tumblr going. Now consumed with guilt, she confesses. Almost instantly, she suffers a public humiliation. The TV deal disappears. Her boyfriend breaks up with her. Then Karl is thrust into the limelight, only to suffer a dramatic fall himself. Together, they vow to find out who is responsible for ruining both of their lives and why. But in order to exact justice and a wicked revenge, they must first come clean with each other.

Members Reviews:

Hilarious

I laughed my head off throughout. Anyone who has worked in television or was screwed by social media will do the same.

Smart and well written characters

I wasn't sure I would like this after I read the reviews, but it sounded great and I am so glad I read it anyway. It's a totally original concept, and I love the way it alternates between the characters and between the various social media formats as well as their direct narratives. It's smart, timely, and very well written. I highly recommend this!

Little White Lies

Little White Lies is the story of Coretta White, a senior in high school who starts a blog called Little White Lies on a whim. Her very first entry about her parentsâ little white lie, âDante de Blasio, the fifteen-year-old son of New York mayoral candidate Bill de Blasio, should, âreally shave that Afro down if he knows whatâs good for him and for his fatherâs campaignâ âunexpectedly goes viral. She begins getting messages from readers asking for her advice about anything and everything â hundreds of them. And she feels like should answer them all. Between that and trying to write and post a new blog entry every day, she quickly becomes overwhelmed. Her school work starts to suffer and she needs good grades to get into the college of her choice. Her best friend Rachel has the perfect solution â hire a ghost writer! Rachel connects her with Karl, an experienced ghost writer who works for AllYou, a company that specializes in pairing up ghostwriters with clients. Karl has already ghostwritten several books and should have been used to working anonymously. However, when a post he writes for Little White Lies about Beyoncé becomes the blogâs most popular post, he is upset that he canât take any credit for it. Eventually, Corettaâs secret comes out and her world is turned upside down.

Little White Lies requires some suspension of disbelief. Itâs a YA novel â Iâm not sure if a teenager would be more able to overlook some of the plot holes than I was. For instance, there is a very convoluted money laundering subplot that I could not make heads or tails of. And I am a former CPA so you would think I would be able to understand it.

I thought the premise of this book was original. My 10-year-old, who reads at the high school level, thought it sounded interesting after reading the blurb on the back and wants to read it. I think it would be appropriate for him.

Members Reviews:

Sweet

another great follow-up, but I do feel a little let down about the ending. Though I do like that both Tony and Ian were great guys. I thought Tess would want to be with Ian after a while, but then the ending. Author did a great job to make an interesting story. I still loved it.

Unexpected but wonderful

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes! It was a love story, but not a lot like other books. I know friends who are not big on romance that would love this!

What did you like best about this story?

I enjoyed how this book was not just about love. It was also about theater. I liked learning about theater while reading and enjoying the story.

Have you listened to any of Brittany Morgan Williamss other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes. This one was just as good as the others!

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Can on stage love work off stage too?

Any additional comments?

Great book!

Romeo and Juliet figure out how love works

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would, I liked that this story ended differently from the rest in the series and that the main character did some growing up throughout.

Who was your favorite character and why?

I still really like Tessa - she's outgoing, not afraid to go for what she wants but behaves graciously even when she's disappointed.

What about Brittany Morgan Williamss performance did you like?

I really like that the characters have all their own voices, not overdone!

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Definitely, it wasn't too long and the story had me hooked.

Any additional comments?

I absolutely loved the ending of this book, the characters all grow up and treat each other well instead of competing for each others affections!

Publisher's Summary:

The tide of zombies appears to be under control, thanks to the franken-beasts known as dinosaurs. However, one calm zombie shifts the tide. Soon they swell in like foaming water, buffeting against the frail walls men make. Pools of blood will flow, teeth with gnash, and not even dinosaurs will be able to stop this onslaught.

Experience the second book in the struggle of Zombies Versus Dinosaurs!

Members Reviews:

Post apocalyptic meets Jurassic park

Great concept well written the first book is a must or you will be lost. Not your traditional zombie and the characters already have a history that is meant to be understood. The narration was alright but really weird voice for the main characters daughter. Sounds like a wittle baby talky and yet a proficient fighter and survivalist. Overall I enjoyed it but it was defiantly not a standalone story. I received this audiobook from the author narrator or publisher for free via audiobookblast in exchange for an unbiased review

gotta try it again after I get the first one

I received this book free of charge for an honest review. knowing I wasn't starting at the beginning kept distracting me from realy getting into it, gonna have to hear it again after I get the first one to really enjoy it, no doubt though that I'll just like it more,after all how can you not like dinosaurs and zombies together

zombies vs dinosaurs vs humans

The idea was very interesting and I really wanted it to be something other than what it was. I wanted Jurassic Park vs zombies and instead it was more like petting zoo vs Cro-Magnons. I read a lot of post apocalyptic stories and this wasn't like any of them, which was refreshing; however; I felt like I was taking a course without the proper prerequisites. The book can stand alone but I really felt like I lost something by not having read the first one. I also felt like the first 1/2 of the book was wasted going into far too much detail on Alpha vs Beta relationships. The action didn't really come until the end of the book and then it was just over with too quickly. I plan on getting the first book so that I can get more familiar with the characters and their circumstances in order to hopefully understand this story better and prepare for the next.

I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.

Unique

Any additional comments?

I wish I would have listened to book 1 first as I was lost for much of the book. Other than that, this was a very good book with a unique story. The narrator did a great job.

I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.

Unique, captivating and interesting.

As the plot unfolds it becomes apparent that Paul, The Pale Rider is the leader of the uninfected humans and that Janus is the leader of the Blue Brains or Zombies. Each leader or Alpha is trying to grow their pack and extend their ability to survive. What will happen when the two alphas meet? Within the humans is a third female character, Heche who takes the role of a pseudo-geneticist by experimenting with the beasts improving them and selling them to humans for income. What impact will this genetic tinkering have upon the story? This is a tale of creation and evolution, of self-discovery and growth. This is one unique story and unlike anything I have come across before. Captivating and interesting to be sure.

Title: H.E.A.R.

Publisher's Summary:

Kassandra Black used to get away with things. She was her high school's anonymous vigilante, exposing bullies and predators. But when she's expelled for breaking into another student's car just weeks before graduation, her acceptance to Columbia is revoked. Now her future depends on behaving herself for the summer at Henley University under the watchful eye of her great-uncle Brian. If she successfully assists him in his HEAR program (Henley Engineering Anomalies Research), and if he puts in a good word for her, she can at least go to college somewhere.

As Kass gets to know the four other HEAR students, she realizes that she overlooked the "Anomalies" part of their acronym. They've all been recruited to help Brian run experiments that gauge extrasensory perception - including, to her astonishment, Kass herself. But Kass would know if she were psychic...right?

Members Reviews:

Badass vigilante lead, pacey, twisted plot from ESP love to CIA vice.

Kass is a totally badass lead, with an endearing vigilante lock-picking past. Throw in some newly discovered ESP, plenty of humor and cynicism and you've got a girl we all want to hang out with.

When the author, Epstein, stumbled on the story of reputable universities funding research into ESP (in the real world), she saw the setting for a great young adult novel; she was right. A team of gifted teens are brought together by an enigmatic professor to explore their powers of prediction, but encounter other forces well beyond their control.

I shouldn't give too much away - just read it! I loved it, and would highly recommend whether or not you're a 'young adult' (I'm not). Looking forward to the next one!

Kassandra is a high school teen like most of us - she's brash

From the protagonist, Kassandra Black, to the fascinating plot that kept me turning the pages, HEAR is a must read. Kassandra is a high school teen like most of us - she's brash, she's sensitive, she's eager, and confused. She's a character that I not only identified with but wanted to follow on her escape to figure out if she has E.S.P. - a topic that Epstein digs into in a convincing and fascinating way. This is a terrific read for anyone of any age who is looking for a delightful story that not only entertains but takes you on a journey as well. You'll feel like your in the lab with Kassandra and her cohorts and become fascinated about the world of the sixth sense as well.

R.E.A.D.

What a fast, exciting, and thoughtful read! I'm not surprised, though. As with her wonderful book God Is in the Pancakes (God Is in the Pancakes) Robin Epstein handles her story and characters with respect and maturity.

An expert balance of humor and realistically-scary plot distinguishes H.E.A.R. from the ever-growing stable of supernatural YA novels while her witty voice makes H.E.A.R. a joy to readers of any age. I expected a lot of teen romance but what I didn't expect was how cleverly she subverts and infuses her romantic elements so that they aid the story instead of bogging it down. She takes a lot of risks to make her sci-fi mystery as realistic as possible but she certainly pulls it off. H.E.A.R. hooks you fast and jostles you hard with each twist. I read a lot of detective thrillers and if I was compelled to keep turning the page, you will be too.

Because there were no other children for miles in any direction, the two boys spent every waking hour together until school and remained as brothers their entire lives.

Amazing

So on March 4, I had the privilege to speak to this wonderful author. I'm not a fan history but although this was one it had me in the pass imaging what people had to go through back then and allow for me to appreciate them more for what they did so I can be an have what I do now. Read it you'll love it and the narrator was good real good.

Great Book !!!

Forbidden by Eve Bunting was good. I recommend other people to read the book. It's is one of my favorite ones. What I like about the book is the Eve Bunting put a lot of details in the book and you can imagine the settings in your head, if it was a peaceful or scary place. What I dislike about that book is that the ending was so good and wished there was more. Hope Eve Bunting makes a second part. It's is fine to leave as the first book. I chose this rating because it was just a good book. The ending got me like . My friends have read it and they were like that to. Really good book to read !!
