Dark Visions, by L.J. Smith


 Dark Visions is an outstanding book written by none other than Lj. Smith. The book consists of a protagonist named Kaitlyn Fairchild who happens to possess psychic powers, whatever she draws ends up happening in real life, whether it be in the next few days or years later. Because of her powers, Jouce Piper an aspiring scientist invites her to attend the Zetes institute where she will learn control over her powers. At the institute, she meets four other psychics named Anna, Rob, Gabrial, and Lewis, and quickly upon meeting them, our protagonist instantly becomes friends with them, well asides from the prickly Gabrial Wolfe and she even finds herself falling in love with the kind-hearted Rob during her stay. However, not everything at this inside is pitch perfect, weeks into attending the institute they attain some information that leaves the now-established group of friends with a multitude of questions unanswered.

I really enjoyed Dark Visions, by L.J. Smith, it was a very fun read that had many twists and turns that leaves the reader wanting more. After reading the book I kept on wishing for a novella about the characters' lives after everything the events that take place in the book. The author did an amazing job at really helping me connect with all of the characters, so much so that by the end of the book I felt as though I really knew each of the main characters personally. Overall I would say it is a must-read even though it is an older book, and unfortunately, we will not be getting a continuation of this trilogy.
