In this sequel to Pivot Point (2013), Addie's ability to slow time is growing stronger. She jumps at the chance to spend some time away from the paranormal and joins her father in the normal world. There, Addie's best friend, Laila, has a note from Addie explaining that Laila can learn to restore Addie's lost memories. (Got it?) As the two work together to uncover lost memories, they discover new secrets about the paranormal world. Though a bit heavy on the romantic sidelines, the plot is fast-paced with plenty of astonishing twists and secrets to be uncovered, which should even surprise fans.

The author's engaging sequel to Pivot Point (HarperTeen, 2013) follows the further adventures of Addie Coleman, a teenager with clairvoyant powers that allow her to see the futures that will result based upon which choices she makes. Addie lives in the Compound, a secret community filled with people with paranormal abilities. While the first book alternated chapters between two paths in life set before her, the sequel alternates chapters narrated by Addie and by her best friend, Laila, whose own power gives her the ability to selectively erase memories. Both friends are also struggling with emerging new abilities; for Addie, the ability to slow down time and for Laila, the ability to restore memories. Most importantly, at least for fans of paranormal romance, both Addie and Laila get involved with hunky, complex guys. Could love be in their futures? Will the oppressive authorities running the Compound allow Addie to search for answers outside the Compound?Teens who flock to genre reads such as this will be eager to find out the answers. Do not count out the possibility of another sequel.Sean Rapacki.

Temporarily living outside the Compound (home to those with secret extrasensory powers), Addie tries to figure out why she had her memories of an alternate future (Pivot Point) erased. Meanwhile, she juggles romance and family issues. The memory wipe may disorient readers even more than it does Addie, but the combination of interpersonal drama, special powers, and secret society intrigue is winning.

Gr 9 Up-In this follow-up to Pivot Point (HarperCollins, 2013), Addie leaves the Compound after a bad breakup. As a Searcher, Addie can see two possible futures, and she finds it hard to believe this is the one she chose, the one in which she is betrayed by her best friend and her boyfriend. Heartbroken, she enters the Norm world where her father decided to go after divorcing Addie's mom. In the Norm world, Addie's kind is forbidden to use their powers for fear that they will expose their secret abilities. The protagonist accidentally slows time more than once while Trevor, the Norm boy who feels incredibly familiar, watches. As Trevor begins to figure out what Addie truly is, she recovers her memories, which reveal the future she actually chose before the Compound had them Erased. Now Addie and her friends have to put the pieces together. Why were her memories Erased? What is the Compound hiding? In this fast-paced fantasy, the plot is slow to begin but takes off after the first few chapters. Recommended for readers who love dystopian stories with a bit of romance.
