Goodreads Summary: Nara Collins is an average sixteen-year-old, with one exception: every night she dreams the events of the following day. Due to an incident in her past, Nara avoids using her special gift to change fate- until she dreams a future she can’t ignore. After Nara prevents a bombing at Blue Ridge High, her ability to see the future starts to fade, while people at school are suddenly being injured at an unusually high rate. Grappling with her diminishing powers and the need to prevent another disaster, Nara meets Ethan Harris, a mysterious loner who seems to understand her better than anyone. Ethan and Nara forge an irresistible connection, but as their relationship heats up, so do her questions about his dark past.
I liked Brightest Kind Of Darkness a lot. I just love that she can see the future but doesn’t really try to change anything…until she dreams that her school is going to be bombed. It’s definitely interesting that calling it in changed her dreams forever, to the point that she no longer has them.
And meeting Ethan, who absorbs negative energy from people by touching them? Definitely crazy, but in a good way. He reminds me of psychic vampires.
One thing I thought was really well-done was the fact that you didn’t know what was going on. Everything came together at the end, and I liked how Nara and Ethan put the pieces together. It did take a long time for the big reveal, but I honestly didn’t mind.
It’s such a cool idea, and I love that their abilities are tied together. And not in an annoying way. Actually, I really liked Nara and Ethan. They’re interesting and different and not cliche. They do make a cute couple…and I’m especially happy that there’s no love triangle.
The cover is just so beautiful…it definitely grabbed my attention! I just need a minute to swoon over that cover.
It gets a 4 out of 5. I didn’t love it, but it’s unique, fun and interesting.
