Review Blitz: The Masks Series by Melissa Pearl



Caitlyn Davis always cruised through life, not being the type to ruffle feathers or involve herself in high school drama. That is, until a chance encounter with a strange, homeless man changes everything.

Suddenly, Caitlyn has the ability to see behind people's masks. She discovers that her life isn’t as simple as she imagined and high school is filled with secrets...some very sinister ones.

Unable to ignore her new gift, Caitlyn embarks on a mission to learn why one of her friends suddenly appears terrified, but masks her fear with a bright, smiling veneer. Will Caitlyn's new ability lead her into hot water? Or is her new found vision a blessing that will expose her friends' true colors?

Her quest will lead Caitlyn to lose friends, stand up for those in need, and even find love.

At Palisades High School every face tells a story...

What would you do if you could suddenly see what people are really feeling. Well, Caitlyn is able to do just that. But what she sees once she takes the masks off might be to scary for she to handle. 

I love reading about supernatural beings. It lets my imagination run wild with what could be. Melissa has written a book with a subject that I have never read about before. It is a really neat idea that she has come up with. I think that it would be awesome to have the ability that Caitlyn has. Just to see what people are really feeling. To know what reactions they are having. But, at the same time, I would be scared. 

Melissa's writing is really unique. She makes a story come alive, she makes you think about the what could be. I can't wait to read more of her books!!

Caitlyn Davis has an unusual gift. She knows exactly how people feel. Everyone wears a mask, but she sees the hidden truth. This ability has changed her life, both for the better and worse. She can choose to ignore what she sees...but what happens when it involves the guy she loves?

Eric Shore knew getting involved with a girl who could read people was risky, but he couldn't help himself. Caitlyn is gorgeous and he loves being with her. Their relationship is going great...until she tells him that his step-brother and star basketball player, Connor, is doing drugs. Having looked up to the guy for years, Eric just can't buy it. Things only get worse when Caitlyn questions the true nature of Eric's favorite teacher.

The first year at college is supposed to be amazing, but theirs is off to a rocky start. As masks are peeled away, secrets will be exposed, dangers will be revealed, and both must decide out of the people closest to them, who is telling the truth...and who is being two-faced.

This is the second book in The Masks series. This book is better than the first one. Caitlyn has figured out how to keep peoples true feelings hidden. But every now and then she sees somethings that she really doesn't want too. This time, instead of high school problems, she is in college. She gets a funny feeling when she is around one of her professors and it isn't the good kind of funny. Can her and Eric stay strong during this year? Can Eric trust her enough to help her out?

Man, these books just keep getting better and better. Melissa keeps her readers wanting more. She keeps the suspense in her writing. But she does it without making you sweat. I can't wait to see what she comes out with next!!
