Brooklynn's Bridge by KT Hunter

January, I know you did it. You’re trying to pay me back for turning on you.” Her smile had left her face and a devious one replaced it. 
“Brooklynn, you just don’t realize that when I come after you, you won’t even see it coming.” 

After her life is turned upside down through a serious of unfortunate events, sixteen-year-old Brooklynn is forced to move to Texas, where she and her family can start over.

But after the incident back in Edmonds, Washington with Alex Pierce, Brooklynn is shaken about her ability and with only her grandmother, Karen, to understand her, she’s not sure whom she can trust—especially after meeting the mysterious and fearless January who seems to be the one person immune to her abilities. With a new school, new friends, and the conflicting feelings of a new crush, Brooklynn has a lot to manage… all while dealing with January’s impending threats of revenge. Filled with suspense, drama, and wit, Brooklynn’s Bridge will take readers through a spiraling mystery, as it follows Brooklynn and her secret abilities through the whirling world of high school and revenge… but will her powers and her new friends be enough to allow her escape January’s grasp with her life?
-"Brooklynn's Bridge" summary on Goodreads

This book had a little bit of a robotic writing style, making it hard to identify and connect with the characters. Events and emotions that Brooklynn and her friends were going through/ feeling were vaguely described or just blurted out. It would have been a lot better if time had been taken to better create both the numerous types of relationships, and the individual character personalities.

Sometimes with this large of a group, I found that the character dialog was hard to follow, and needed to be re-read a few times to understand who was speaking and what was going on.

The story also jumped around a lot. It was similar to my issue with the characters. The intense action scenes had a lot of promise, but were too short and read more like Brooklynn was writing about them in a journal than actually going through it. I totally understand not bogging down the reader with boring story line, but even some of the most important events were rushed. The same can also be said about her learning her powers, it was stated several times in the book how she had to adapt, and the hard ships having them caused her, but that never happened. She learned about them and then literally mastered them like nothing. I would have loved to read about some of Brooklynn's struggles and the day to day training she did, it would have made me much more invested in the story.

The concept for this book was interesting, and the crazy plot twists made it fun to read. Overall with some additional editing and A LOT more detail added to major events and character development, this book has real potential. 

I gave it 2 Keos.

And as always guys, please check out the book for yourself, you may LOVE it.
