April, May, and June are three sisters whose parents have just divorced. After May's tequila breakdown they decided to move. Now there at this new school and about two weeks into it strange things start happening. I know I'm sounding cliche.

April is the eldest and she acts like it. She's pretty protective over her sisters especially June. She's the book worm and gets straight A's. She's bossy too. It all starts with her and her waking up seeing red. We find out later that she can see the future. You know there's going to be trouble already. She can look at people or think about people and sees things. She does this with this guy all of a sudden. They are going out and kissing and other stuff... which wasn't necessary. She knows something with June is going to happen so she tries to prevent it.

May is the middle child and feels completely invisible which is actually her power. Becoming invisible. She is kind of goth I guess. She's a loner too wit absolutely no friends like ever. She's sarcastic all the time and as you read earlier took the divorce hard especially since she was so close to her father. She needs a tutor in the beginning and gets stuck with Stanford Henry. He wears everything Stanford. He is rude when he first meets her and she gets angry at him all the time.

June. Oh, June. She is 14 so I guess it's okay for her to be immature but she is really immature! Her goal is to be... wait for it! Popular. Yeah... She sees Mariah as her gateway to that popularity. What she doesn't know is all the issues she has. And her jerk of a boyfriend Blake who doesn't even think about her and she would know because her power is reading minds. She gets really angry at her sisters treating her like a child.

This was a good book but it lacked. It could have been way better. It had so much potential. But my mom was right it is a little slow. Only a little. I guess I wanted the action right away. I don't know it just seemed like the big event and leading up to it could have been better. It could been more dramatic and the writing could have been better in that way. ( )

Good, esp. how it shows the relationship between sisters. But I have no idea what what going on with Avery. ( )

THE CUTE. That is what this book is. So freaking adorable. I’ve read one Robin Benway book before this, but I tried the audio, and I feel like the adorbs did not translate quite as well to the audiobook format. Anyway, I totally understand why people want Benway books with their cuteness. Also, I totally will use the words cute and adorable until they cease having any meaning throughout the course of this review, so deal with it. Honestly, it’s Robin Benway’s fault, because all I can say is CUTE CUTE CUTE.

Pros:
* What if you woke up with super powers?
* What if you still had to go to high school?

Cons:
* A bit fluffy
* It feels like there is subtext, but it's buried too deep.

I enjoyed this novel a lot, which is odd because I usually don't like multiple POVs. I thought the author did a good job giving the girls each a unique voice, so even if you skipped the chapter header, you knew who's head you were in.

The thing that bugged me was that the whole novel it felt like there was something going on behind the surface, for instance May's feelings of loneliness and her power being invisibility, but it never came around for the other girls.

Also, and it may be because I just finished Lauren Oliver's "Before I Fall," but I kept expecting that there would some consequence for changing the future. ( )

Sisters, April, May and June are dealing with their parents divorce. They move to a new town with their mom and think everything is falling apart until they discover they have special powers. April can see the future, May can disappear, and June can read people's thoughts. I liked how close the sisters were and when I read their names I kept thinking of the months. They have their own personality but together they are amazing. Some things were predictable, like them using their powers for their own good. May not dealing with things and just disappearing or June using her powers to be popular. ( )
