A review by sienaro
Mind Games by Kiersten White

4.0

I liked the characters, I liked the setting, I liked, liked, liked the writing style (for the most part). What I didn’t like about this book was the flitting. We flitted forward and back in time, from Fia to Annie’s point of view, from place to place, to reference to previous thing that happened but we haven’t yet learned about. The story wasn’t necessarily fast moving. It happens in only three days and dare I say it was somewhat slow moving. The endless amounts of flashbacks and point of view shifts made it difficult to keep and follow the seemingly brilliantly crafted plot line. The characters and relationships were well written, but as the story went on, they developed into what seemed like more juvenile versions of themselves.

The whole novel felt like a set up for the next novel, but left the reader desiring so much more without any satisfaction or desire to read the next book.
