The Darkest Minds is a dystopian YA novel. It's about a girl, Ruby, who sent what into a camp When She Was 10 years old. Most of her friends and classmates had died of a weird disease by then. The illness, called Iaan (Idiopathic Adolescents Acute neurodegeneration) Usually infestation children between the ages of 8-14. Ruby survived but developed special abilities. She can see into people's minds and later learns how to control people. The only problem: she can not control her abilities and things go wrong. The book starts out really fast paced and interesting. The reader learns a lot about the world the story takes place in and therefore about Ruby's situation and background. The middle part of the book felt a little flat to me. I had problems getting back into the story Because it did not seem to evolve. The storyline felt stuck and really slow. I was waiting for more to happen. In comparison, the pace picked up again later on and When the reader what let to the end of the book I was completely Call invested in it again and Could not put it down. All together a quite enjoyable read.
