Review
"Told in alternating voices, this novel has a great premise, and it starts strong, with chunky Gwen both attracted and repelled by Adrian, who is overwhelmed with new sensations and feelings. . . . The couple are worth rooting for . . ."—Booklist "A traditional story of teenage angst with a refreshing twist . . . Told in alternating voices, POWERS is broken into bite-sized and easily digestible segments. This fast-paced plunge into ESP effectively blends the occult with the turmoil of adolescent romance."—School Library Journal
