Why Did I Read? I am making it a point this year to get through allll my Netgalley backlog! I have so many friends that are fans of Alisha Rai so I chose this first! My Thoughts: In the age of social media where anyone can post anything and have it go viral, Girl Gone Viral takes a good hard look at the repercussions a seemingly innocent post can have.

The Sound: I really liked this narrator! I thought she did a great job for each POV that we were in. No complaints here! The Story: I really thought I’d like this one more than I actually did.

I was really eager to see what exactly was going on with the attack and how Frances was going to go about her […]

(To be honest, this part confused me a tad because I was like, are these abilities supernatural? Answer: no, they aren’t.) Cassie, our MC, is a natural profiler. She gets recruited and meets a cast of other teens who also have abilities such as a natural liar, natural with […]
