The book, however, sounds like a fun read. I don't know about being able to hear others... that sounds intriguing, but also exhausting.

And no, what an awful world to be in. Not only the brain buzz of hearing everyone else's thoughts, but you could never have a private thought. If you liked a boy, everyone would know. If you had a scary dream and thought about it in class the next day, everyone would know. It'd certainly get rid of problems like government deception (except for the jackers), but it sounds downright horrid.Jessie Harrellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11581727105030086814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6086062096420008519.post-89683386283218509832011-12-02T10:19:40.524-05:002011-12-02T10:19:40.524-05:00Cat, it's a great book.
