(Whoops, the character I kept calling "Derek" is actually named Dean. I think I fixed all the instances.) The Naturals is YA Criminal Minds with some of the usual “secret school for special teens” mixed in. I read an ARC copy I picked up at a conference several years ago (yes, I'm terrible about r...
Rating: 5 StarsThis book was SO extremely satisfying. This is probably THE best serial killer, teens kick butt mystery YA book I have ever read. What gives this book 5 stars?1.) The cover is a perfect tie-in to the novel, if you read it you will later find out why.2.) The development of the charact...
OMG! Just finished reading, I marathon-ed it through the night and I still have like 3 hours to sleep before work. This book was everything I wanted, It was exactly how I love it! With all the fantasy books I have read the last year, I forgot how much I loveeee detectives/thrillers and everything co...
We've all heard of Quantico, VA, the small town that is home to the FBI Academy, Laboratory, NCIS, and so on. What most of us don't know is that it's also home to a secret training ground for teenagers who are so intuitively good at profiling and other forensically-inclined psychological skills tha...
What an entertaining book! Cassie is a 17 year old girl whose mother was murdered five years ago and who has the extraordinary talent of being a natural at profiling people, of being able to say what or who they are just by looking at them for a few seconds. Out of the blue, she is invited to partic...

She becomes involved in on this due to whim but stays because this new case they ar...

Seriously, how awesome is booklikes? I mean how many places on the internet can you find the same reader reviewing Summer by Edith Wharton and The Naturals by Jennifer Barnes on the same day? So, this isn't Edith Wharton. Not even remotely serious. But, it's a lot of fun. Our MC is a "natural....
The book requires a suspension of disbelief because the main characters are agents of a super secret sect of the FBI and they're teenagers. Anyway, I don't mind a plot that is beyond belief and I've always been interested in profiling and other aspects of Behavioral Science. There's a kind of behind...
Fact: I'm slightly obsessed with books and movies about serial killers. Fact: I love good audio book narrators. Bring these two things together, and you have The Naturals by Jennifer Lynn Barnes. It's likely that I was just in the right frame of mind to appreciate this book, but I loved every minute...
