Are you a fan of all the spy girl novels ? Read The Gallagher Girls, Heist Society, Etiquette and Espionage ? What about the ones who have powers to help solve crimes like Kimberly Derting's series The Body Finder or Cecelia Gray's new book Drawn ?
From one of my favourite authors Jennifer Lynn Barnes comes a new book called "The Naturals". The Naturals features a seventeen year old girl Cassie aka Cassandra who has the ability to hear people's thoughts and read people to an exact art. The story ...more

Check out the discussion AH and I had about The Naturals at BadassBookReviews.com!
The Naturals is being billed as Criminal Minds meets Pretty Little Liars. Having seen neither myself, I can’t comment on this comparison but I did enjoy this book.

Whenever I think of YA mystery books I think predictable and the obvious choice of the character who did the murders. In The Naturals I had it all wrong and not once guessed who was the bad guy until the end. I gave this book 5 stars because it deserved it.
