YA
In this sequel to Slide, the ability to mentally slip into the mind of another person is still pretty undesirable. Sure, Vee finally got her guy, but she's got a lot of work yet to do in sorting out how to use her power responsibly. Vee is an appealing mix of brash certainty and absolute cluelessness--it makes her worth rooting for if at times exasperating.

Vee has the unusual ability to temporarily see the world through someone else's eyes. When she witnesses the murder of her sister's friend (from the perspective of the unknown murderer), she attempts to unravel the mystery herself, but things go decidedly awry. The mystery is far less the point than the vulnerable, slightly lost Vee seeking any sense of home she can find.
