“When you can see things others can’t, what do you do when someone’s watching you?

Everybody knows about Clarity “Clare” Fern. She’s the psychic girl in school, the one who can place her hands on something and see hidden visions from the past.

Only Clare would rather not be a celebrity. She prefers hanging back, observing. Her gift is not a game to her.

But then someone starts playing with her head . . . and heart. Messages and gifts from a secret admirer crop up everywhere Clare turns. Could they be from Gabriel, the gorgeous boy who gets Clare’s pulse racing? Or from Justin, Clare’s hopeful ex-boyfriend who’d do anything to win her back?

One thing is certain. Clare needs to solve this mystery, and soon. Because the messages are becoming sinister, and a girl in town has suddenly disappeared.”

This is an amazing sequel! it had everything I wanted in the book and more. A great plot line, amazing characters and a stalker that makes your hair crawl.

What I loved most about this plot is the great plot line. With every turn of the page, you dive deeper in the life of Clare. I adored being in her shoes and seeing how much her life has changed since then. The plot pacing in the book is so sweet! I loved the reading the book and really feeling like I was apart of it.Taking a walk in Clare shoes has never felt better.

The characters in this book have grown up so much! I loved that Clare is not naive but strong. Despite what she has gone through, her head remains high.  I also adored how even minor characters play such a unique role in Clare’s life.

Now the love interest! It’s seem like I have been waiting for a long time to know this decision. Don’t worry, I won’t ruin it for you. But am I happy with who she chose? Definitely.

Overall, Perception is a ground breaking story that you will not forget. The psychological mysteries and thrillers in the book leave you gasping for air. A charming, entertaining sequel that will leave your mind blown, Perception  gives an engaging read!

 I give it 5 BITES!

Happy Reading!
