Book Review: Perfect Lies

I'm finally catching up with all the series I have started! So this book is the second book of the series written by Kiersten White.

Perfect Lies
Kiersten White
Perfect Lies (Mind Games, #2) 

Following the first story, Mind Games, Annie is now with the Lerner center and Fia is back with the Keane school.  Annie must remain hidden--the Keane Institute believes her to be dead at the hands of Fia. 

Fia must team up with James and a new friend, "Pixie" to bring down the Keane Institute and stop the misuse of those girls that have special powers and abilities. 

When Annie sees the death of Keane and her sister, she must come out of hiding to change the future she has seen.

 White has an interesting story plot that I have not quite seen in YA fiction, which gives her brownie points right off the bat. The story continues with some new twists, and White avoids creating the same story she did in the first book, which is sometimes the downfall of YA writers.  Annie and Fia have switched places and they now experience things the other did in the first book, but it is twisted in a way that it doesn't seem like you are reading the exact same story over again.

I love the way Annie (who is blind) becomes a stronger, more independent woman.  She starts the series off as a timid, shy, and weak girl that hides in her room most of the time.  Now she is blindly kicking butt and taking down the villains and standing up for herself and her sister.  She gets to play the hero in this second book, and it rocks my face off!
