Amber (The Literary Phoenix)

Mind Games was right in the middle. Yes, the two sisters felt similar. Yes, the bouncing around in first person between two characters in both past and present was annoying. But the story? The story was really good. Enough secrets were unearthed that I wasn't frustrated with plot progression, and enough remained buried that I certainly intend to read the next book.
White writes with an edge I really like. She is witty and opinionated and believes in strong, original female characters that have every right to fall in love, but don't lose themselves in it, and I think that distinction is very important and certainly separates her from most of the YA Teen Romance writers. I really like her.
I also liked Fia. I think it's her best character, from what I've read of her so far.
