About this listen
In this pulse-pounding prequel to the Night Sky series by New York Times and USA Today best-selling author Suzanne Brockmann and her daughter Melanie Brockmann, Skylar has her first brush with Destiny. She's about to meet a boy who will change her life - and a girl who wants to end it.
I know her.
Know her from inside the dreams. Inside those terrible, murderous, bloody dreams. I've heard her - screaming, her voice mixing in an awful chorus with all those other girls. Little girls.
Please, God.
That's what one of the little girls keeps saying, in the dream that is not justa dream. Please, God.
But I know better. There's no escaping this fate. This is destiny.
I must kill Skylar.
Skylar Reid is the new girl at school. Her mom just moved them to Florida - a.k.a. the Land of the Living Dead, where the average age of her new neighbors is seventy-five - to start over. Skylar is not a fan of the change or her total lack of friends. Then she meets Calvin, a funny, sarcastic boy who doesn't let being in a wheelchair stop him from verbally shredding their preppy classmates. Skylar's just about to decide her new school's not a total loss, when an odd girl wearing an oversize trench coat in the murderous southern heat declares, "You're one of us!" and then tries to kill her.

Story
Twelve-year-old Sophie has never quite fit into her life. She’s skipped multiple grades and doesn’t really connect with the older kids at school, but she’s not comfortable with her family, either. The reason? Sophie’s a Telepath, someone who can read minds. No one knows her secret - at least, that’s what she thinks.... But the day Sophie meets Fitz, a mysterious (and adorable) boy, she learns she’s not alone. He’s a Telepath too, and it turns out the reason she has never felt at home is that, well...she isn’t. Fitz opens Sophie’s eyes to a shocking truth....

Sixteen-year-old Day Connor views life through the lens of her camera, where perspective is everything. But photographs never tell the whole story. After Day crosses paths with Julian, the world she pictures and the truths she believes - neatly captured in black and white - begins to blur. Julian is not the "armed and dangerous" escapee the police are searching for, but his alibis don't quite add up, either. There is more to his story. This time, Day is determined to see the entire picture...whatever it reveals. Did he? Or didn't he?

It’s two months before Amelia’s big audition for the Mystwick School of Musicraft. If she gets in, she will learn to spin music into powerful magic - but her Gran has one last-ditch plan to persuade her out of it: sports camp. A week of softball, sprinting, and sweaty socks isn't exactly Amelia’s idea of a good time - in fact, she's deeply, appallingly unathletic. By the end of day one, she’s puked her guts out in track, gotten a black eye in no-contact flag football, and firmly established herself as the Least Valuable Player at camp.

Good but feels incomplete
The story is good. I did enjoy it but wish the whole series have more info and storyline with Sky’s mom and possibly band teacher. Cause it does sound like they know but doesn’t get into how they would know and I think that part is lacking. Or at least could make another short story

Nice introduction to the series.
High school junior Skyler Reid is not happy. Her mother has moved them from Connecticut to Florida where she is the "new girl" in school. Her over-protective mother makes her ride the bus, and she has no friends. One day she approaches another kid, Calvin, who seems to be a loner. They hit it off right away and she's finally made a friend. As Sky talks to Calvin, she notices a girl wearing a trench coat in the Florida heat. The girl is listening to their conversation intently...then she approaches Sky, opening her coat.
This is a prequel novella to the Night Sky series written by Suzanne Brockmann & Melanie Brockmann. I'm not sure where the series is going to take us, but this novella was an interesting introduction to the characters. I listened to the audiobook which is narrated by Melanie Brockmann. It took me a little while to get used to her voice, but she ended up doing a decent job.

pretty good for a prequel
I decided to try these books, because I like the like this kind of genres. And since it was included in my membership. I didn't have to use a credit if I didn't like them. ( I know! Very shallow of me! But, it's the truth. We all do it. get over it. lol) Anyway, I actually liked it. Everything BUT the tempted school shooting. I mean, come on. Don't we have enough of that in the real world?.
Still, it grabbed my attention from the beginning, and kept it till the end. Would I tell teen's to listen to it? hmmm I doubt it. My taste is very different from those around me. But I love the fact this was a family effort, and I'm glad I downloaded it!

New Friends.
This is a little ‘How do you do?’ intro to the series. So far so good. But can trigger some people, since the story brings a gun to school. Lots of typical high school angst. It is dangerous for the author to narrate their own work; it usually is not good; in this book she does an okay job.
