Publisher Description
Perfect for fans of We Were Liars, an edgy, heartstopping psychological thriller about two sisters determined to protect each other no matter the cost, from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of And I Darken.
Fia was born with flawless instincts—her first impulse is always exactly right. Her sister, Annie, is blind—except when her mind is gripped by strange visions of the future.
Trapped in a school that uses girls with extraordinary powers as tools for corporate espionage, Annie and Fia are forced to choose over and over between using their abilities in twisted, unthinkable ways…or risking each other’s lives by refusing to obey.
“A sharp, heart-wrenching, lightning-fast, and fabulously fun read.” —Laini Taylor, New York Times bestselling author of Daughter of Smoke & Bone and Strange the Dreamer

"Loved it! A bit darker than her first series (Paranormalcy), but way more intriguing. The book is filled with various levels of mind games, including psychic ones. I just hope that this series does not fizzle out like the last one. Can't wait to read what will happen next!"
— Marci (5 out of 5 stars)
Quotes
-
“Mind Games is a thriller of the best sort, one with many characters vying to have things their way, who will go as far as they need to get what they want—and a protagonist who will go even further. A brutal, exciting gem of a book.”
— Holly Black, New York Times bestselling author -
“You might think you know Kiersten White, but here is a darker, more dangerous Kiersten White. A sharp, heart-wrenching, lightning-fast, and fabulously fun read in which twining narratives weave a trap around two extraordinary sisters. Fia may be the angriest narrator I’ve ever loved. I bet you will too.”
— Laini Taylor, author of Daughter of Smoke & Bone -
“A tour de force of perspective and unreliability. The combination of supernatural abilities, clandestine organizations, sharply witty dialogue, and a supremely skilled heroine will be familiar to readers of White’s Paranormalcy books, but this story is very much its own.”
— Publishers Weekly (starred review) -
“Fans who love Evie’s signature style of butt-kicking, wise-cracking, headlong rushing into trouble, neatly mixed with her addiction to all things romantic and girly, will embrace every nerve-wracking moment. A sparkly gift tied-up with a pretty pink bow.”
— VOYA (starred review) -
“A visceral thriller. White effectively captures Fia’s unpredictable, moment-to-moment existence, while Annie’s narrative is grounded but emotionally complex. White’s world building is as intriguing as her characters, making this a must-read series opener.”
— Booklist
Mind Games Listener Reviews
-
" Probably 4.5 stars. A bit confusing. And at first, Annie and Fia annoyed me. James is.... James. But the ending was superb. I look forward to book number two. Definitely Kiersten White's best. "
— Leonor, 1/3/2014 -
" A fast paced read if nothing else. The non-linear narrator serves to help develop the plot, especially told from two different prespectives. But the overall plot was lacking, and the ending left much to be desired. Another series I will not be reading the next book in. At least this female teenage narrator is not quite as annoying and whiny as is par for YA these days, though her repetition repetition repetition got old fast. "
— Elise, 12/25/2013 -
" RATING: 2.5 Out Of 5 "
— Katherine, 12/16/2013 -
" I enjoyed this one, but at the same time it left me feeling slightly disjointed and uncomfortable. Perhaps because Fia got under my skin? Interesting and different. "
— Carol, 12/2/2013 -
" This book was dark, twisted and wonderful. It shows what a great range Kiersten White has in her writing ability. It is a complete departure from Paranormalcy but every bit as good. "
— Lani, 12/2/2013 -
" White did a really good job creating a believable relationship between the sisters. I felt empathy for both of them, especially Fia. The ending was bleak, but fortunately it is a series,so hopefully things will eventually get better. "

" Omygosh this one is actually good !! An amazing mix of suspense+sci-fi +paranormal +thriller "
— ♥♡R, 10/20/2013 -
" I was debating between two and three stars on this one. I don't know, it just seemed like it was missing something. I love Kiersten's writing usually, but I honestly don't know what to say about this book. My opinion on it may change after reading the sequel, but for now I'm kind of underwhelmed. "
— Helen, 8/29/2013 -
" This book was AMAZING review to come "
— Miranda, 5/26/2013 -
" Absolutely AMAZING. If you haven't read it, you seriously need to read it. It is just...i am actually speechless. Better than the Hunger Games series. "
— Brittany, 4/15/2013 -
" It's so good there's a lot of action in it! You might get a little confused but hint : (pay attention to the chapter names) "
— Melissa, 2/26/2013 -
" Loved the humor the author used with the main character! I think I laughed out loud once or twice. There is kissing. I liked the plot. "

About Kiersten White
Kiersten White is the New York Times bestselling author of the Paranormalcy trilogy, The Chaos of Stars, and the psychological thriller Mind Games. Although originally meant to be the story of a femme fatale, Mind Games and Perfect Lies quickly turned into the story of two sisters and impossible choices. This may be because Kiersten has three sisters, none of whom she has killed for, but all of whom she has considered killing at one point or another. Kiersten lives in San Diego with her family.
