Hear by Robin Epstein


Release date: December 29th, 2015
Publisher: Soho Teen

Description from Goodreads:

Expelled from high school months shy of graduation—her acceptance to Columbia revoked due to vigilante justice gone awry—Kassandra Black is sent to work in her great-uncle Brian’s lab at Henley University. She’s helping with his HEAR (Henley Engineering Anomalies Research) program, and hopefully getting him to put in a good word for her to attend Henley instead. She’s got to go somewhere, after all.

But as she gets to know the other HEAR students, it becomes clear that she overlooked the “Anomalies” part of their acronym—these kids are here to help Brian run experiments that gauge ESP capacity. They’ve each been selected and recruited, including, to her astonishment, Kass herself. But ESP? She doesn’t buy any of it. And even if it were real, she definitely isn’t psychic.

Yet with each new test, she finds herself more frightened. Kass really can communicate telepathically; she can even glimpse the future. When one of her fellow HEAR students is murdered, Kass must try to forget everything she knows about herself and her family and learn to trust those who share her remarkable gift.
 


Why I'm excited:

First of all, this just sounds really good. It honestly had me at vigilante justice, but when I read on and saw all the awesome ESP stuff, I was hooked! Add in telepathy, murder and conspiracy, and you've got me waiting in line to get my hands on this one! 


I actually found out about this book by looking through the Soho Teen catalog I got at BEA.


What are you waiting to read?

  4. I hadn't heard of this one but it actually sounds pretty good. I'm also kind of loving that there is no mention of romance! Yes there may be one but it didn't make it into the synopsis which hopefully means it won't take over a story! Great pick.
