I really enjoyed this read. At first I was confused because of the narrative. But in the first few pages they say something along the lines of: "you might be wondering who is telling this story. Truth is, we all are." It's not a direct quote, but you get the point. Everyone is telling the story, which may sound confusing but it's actually really unique and amazing!

I love reading stories about teenagers, and teenagers with telepathic abilities? SIGN ME UP! I was already anticipating this read and I was not disappointed. However, it used to be a standalone, and now it's not? Not sure what they are going to do for the sequel...

The blurb for this book sounds really interesting, and as if it had a lot of potential. The premise is extremely original. However, it sort of fell flat for me.

The students in one homeroom class got their flu shot, which was contaminated and gave the kids ESP. So the potential was endless; however, it was just a bunch of teenage drama between the kids since they could hear each other's thoughts.

I didn't dislike it, it was cute and entertaining, and a bit funny at times. But I wish the author would have taken it a step further.

It was a quick, light read.

This is a surprisingly fast read, very light and easy on the brain. It's a fun read. I feel like, not having been in high school for so long, I didn't appreciate it as much as I could have. Won't hang on to it, but my check out the sequel.

I loved this book! I could hardly put it down. The story was original and unlike any other. I found the characters very lovable and each of them had their own unique personalities, but they all told the story together, which I thought was so interesting. I can’t wait to read the sequel!

3.5 stars. The premise was excellent, but the story flatlined a bit. I didn't enjoy the "We" POV throughout the whole thing. Yes, I get why it was used, but I didn't care for it. By about 60% through I pretty much knew where it was going, for all of them. Again, I did love the premise, and how the kids all adjusted to life as telepaths, and learning to live with each other and in each other's heads...and that's why I gave it 3.5 stars. If there'd been more action and I couldn't have guessed the ending, maybe I would have given it more stars.
