When everyone reads minds, a secret is a dangerous thing to keep.
Sixteen-year-old Kira Moore is a zero, someone who can't read thoughts or be read by others. Zeros are outcasts who can't be trusted, leaving her no chance with Raf, a regular mindreader and the best friend she secretly loves. When she accidentally controls Raf's mind and nearly kills him, Kira tries to hide her frightening new ability from her family and an increasingly suspicious Raf. But lies tangle around her, and she's dragged deep into a hidden underworld of mindjackers, where having to mind control everyone she loves is just the beginning of the deadly choices before her.

Definitely worth reading
Open Minds is a captivating story that I would recommend to every person interested in the dystopian genre. The interesting concept developed by Susan Kaye Quinn, a world based on telepathy, in which words are useless, fascinated me and made me interested since the first moment I read the description. The plot wakes up your curiosity and imagination, making you wonder how people and technology will evolve in the future.The first half of the book was a bit slow, without much action or dynamism, but it had what it needed to keep me interested. At some point, however, the situation changes drastically, and the story receives a significant dose of adrenaline and basically you can not leave the book from your hands. I felt there were some points in which the story loses its credibility, the problems are solved too easily, yet it wasn't hard to get over them. I also liked the author's writing style, simple and to the point, with no unnecessary details, sometimes slightly sarcastic and funny.The evolution of the protagonist is well defined, but her relations with other characters are pretty weak. From a shy and lonely girl, but with big aspirations, Kira manages to overcome her limits and to discover her inner courage in order to protect herself and the ones she loves. The relationship between Kira and Raf wasn't emphasized because it did not have a major influence on the story, but I found it lovely and I hope that will be developed in the next volume. From her friendship with Raf, the protagonist learns something important, the fact that we can find sympathy and support very close to us and that trust is one of the basic components of a relationship.I do not quite like it when people bring up in the discussion historical moments that we would rather forget (those who read the story will know what I am talking about). This is why I rated this book four stars instead of five.Overall, Open Minds was a fantastic read that did not disappoint my expectations and surely made me interested in the following books.

    I don't usually read YA. Well, scratch that. There are very few YA books that I actually like. Harry Potter, the Hunger Games, or the Abhorsen Trilogy by Garth Nix come to mind. So I should rephrase this to : I read YA, but the book needs to be exceptional for me to like it. Fortunately, Open Minds by Susan Kaye Quinn is one such book.

    This is the first book in a trilogy and it's perma-free on Amazon, so I admit that I was rather reticent about downloading and reading it. I've been less than impressed with the quality of some free books on amazon in the past.

    But the moment I opened this book, I was hooked! I kept turning the pages and I couldn't put it down. Susan Kaye Quinn created an interesting and compelling world where reading other people's minds is considered the norm, and where people who can't mind-read, or zeros, are outcasts, relegated to the most menial jobs. Because you wouldn't trust someone whose mind you can't read. And they wouldn't be able to operate most of the machinery anyway, since everything, from phones to cars and kitchen appliances, runs on mindware. I must admit that the worldbuilding in this book is impressive, and the consequences of common mindreading are well-thought of.

    Kira is not a typical teenage protagonist either. Sure, she dreams of fitting in and having friends again, and agonizes about the fact that the boy she likes will never go out with a zero. She has the normal hopes and dreams of a teenage girl. And when she discovers that she can not only read minds, but also control them, her first reaction is to pretend that it never happened, to try and hide it, to pass for a normal reader and just fit in. That's what Kira wants most of all, to fit in. But that option proves impossible, and she discovers that there are a lot more jackers than she thought. She also discovers that the harsh reality for a jacker is either to live your life in hiding, work for the FBI, or be sent to a concentration camp.

    I liked the fact that when the s*** hits the fan, Kira doesn't lose time mopping around and waiting for a knight in shining armor to rescue her. She takes the matters in her own hands instead. She does what she thinks is right, even if that means risking her life to free other jackers from a secure FBI facility, or exposing the existence of the jackers and the horrible way they are treated by the government to the media.

    I am very interested to see how she deals with the fallout from that bombshell in the next book, Closed Hearts, btw.

    My only gripe with this book would be how quickly Kira changes from being scared of her powers and reticent to use them to using them left and right without remorse. But you can argue that she is placed in a situation where her survival depends on those powers.

    I would also have liked to see a bit more of a learning curve, because it seems like Kira went from a zero to a super-jacker in the space of a couple months and without any particular efforts.

    But all in all, Open Minds is a fast-paced and interesting book. It's also very well written and formatted. I would never have guessed it was self-published. So if you want to pick up a though provoking and intelligent book for your teen (or for yourself) to read, head over to Amazon and download the free copy.

    I am an avid reader. I devour books the way most people would gorge on sweets. Lately I’ve been reading a slew of new and up-and-coming authors. A subscriber to BookBub, I receive daily deals. Back in April I received a deal on Open Minds: Mindjack Saga. It was recommended because of my ratings on dystopian and science fiction books. The teaser bit sounded interesting, so I picked it up and plopped it into the “to-be-read” folder on my Kindle. This past Monday, it showed up on my BookBub ratings request. I hadn’t read it, but I was in the mood for a dystopian/sci-fi book so I read the sample chapter. This turned out to be a brilliant move. In fact I was so entertained by Open Minds that I bought the second and third books in the series before I’d even finished it!

    From the back of the book: When everyone reads minds, a secret is a dangerous thing to keep. Sixteen-year-old Kira Moore is a zero, someone who can't read thoughts or be read by others. Zeros are outcasts who can't be trusted, leaving her no chance with Raf, a regular mindreader and the best friend she secretly loves. When she accidentally controls Raf's mind and nearly kills him, Kira tries to hide her frightening new ability from her family and an increasingly suspicious Raf. But lies tangle around her, and she's dragged deep into a hidden underworld of mindjackers, where having to mind control everyone she loves is just the beginning of the deadly choices before her.

    At the start of the book you are presented with a future world. The use of beneficial chemicals (pesticides, water treatment purifiers, animal antibiotics, etc.) have caused a genetic evolution in humans. This evolutionary jump resulted in an entire population of people who communicate mind to mind, Readers. There is no lying mind to mind, very few secrets (hard to keep when you hear/broadcast every thought), and precious little privacy. Even with this evolutionary jump, there are occasional throwbacks who don’t go through the change at puberty. Society views them as Zeros, fit only for menial jobs in society. When you can’t be read, you can’t be trusted. You become zero.

    The main character, Kira, is a girl who is past the common change age and has resigned herself to being a zero. The book starts on Kira’s first day of school after summer break. As a known zero, going through classes is a struggle. After all, why should the teachers talk out loud when they can “hear” exactly how much you are comprehending and absorbing from the mental lessons? Frustrated and struggling Kira turns to her only friend, Raf. He is also a normal reader, a Puerto Rican hottie, a high school soccer god, and the boy Kira has a crush on. He doesn’t mind Kira’s disability and seems to like her, but it’s tough when Kira knows that she could never date him or be seen as more than a friend.

    Being a zero sucks, but it was about to get a lot worse for Kira. One particularly frustrating afternoon while studying with Raf, he tries to kiss Kira. In her nervousness, she accidentally knocks out him out and nearly kills him, all with her mind. She is suddenly very aware that what she did was not normal. It wasn’t something any reader could do. Scared and alone, not knowing how to control her abilities, Kira starts lying to everyone. Pretending to be a zero. Until another student, Simon, reveals that he knows she’s a jacker. If being a zero was miserable, being a jacker is worse. It’s downright dangerous. Especially for the normal readers in her life.

    Simon, who is not a reader but passes for one every day at school, agrees to teach Kira how to control her abilities. It’s not long before you see that Simon might not be the gallant hero in this story. Kira is generally a good person, but with Simon pushing and her unease about abusing her abilities, it seems as if she’s making all the wrong choices. Open Minds brought home a simple truth. Teenagers do not always make good choices. They just don’t have the life experiences to see things from multiple angles. This could sometimes make Kira seem less intelligent. It didn’t bother me. I figured, Kira is barely legal to learn to drive a car, I can’t expect her to suddenly know rocket science! Nor do I expect her to always make the right choice (though she tries...). The real action of the book starts when she’s introduced to a ragtag clan of criminal jackers. Kira knows she’s in trouble. Can she get out of the situation? Can she protect her family and friends? Can she survive?

    All of this is set against a futuristic society full of techno/magical advances. Some of the things I liked most about this book weren’t grand. They were little (tiny) details woven through the story. For example, when Kira is in a shady part of town, she thinks about the building codes, how the buildings must be built a certain distance apart to help “quiet the mind” and protect readers in their sleep. Electronics are used by linking your mind with mindware installed in the devices. The same goes for machines, cars (autopilot!), and a host of other things. All of these details are woven in with a deft hand.

    There are so many things about this book that appeals to me as a reader: the technological advances, the simple mind magic (a word I’m using lightly), the consistent forward movement of the plot. I also was intrigued by the historical subplot. It wasn’t subtle. Susan Kay Quinn builds in a strong correlation between the looming threat of being sent to a nebulous jacker prison and the real-life historical internment camps. The subplot ultimately force Kira into a moral dilemma and the biggest choice of her life.

    If you’re looking for a futuristic cyberpunk/sci-fi book with a fast pace, a strong female lead, and an intriguing storyline, I recommend Open Minds: Mindjacker Saga Book One. It’s good. Really good. I’m going to start book two now.

    Reviewed in Australia on March 26, 2017
    The human population has evolved, due to water contamination, the ability to speak mind to mind, is now the norm. Our heroine, off course, is the oddity. She believed she was one of those scorned, because she hadn't developed the mindspeak skill.
    However, she was in a group of people who have a more powerful mind access ability and hers is stronger than most. This group is being targeted by the Government, just as all people who have been different, have been targeted over the generations. This is the story of her fight for justice for her kind.
    It is a spellbinding and compelling tale. I enjoyed the audio rendition immensely.
