I remember reading this book back when I was in high school when I just first started out in 2012-2013. It was part of a series. I can't remember a whole lot about it. I believe the cover wasn't a hard cover but a flexible one and there was more than three books in the series.

It was about a group of teens that take a special class in high school for their special abilities and no one knows about their special abilities except for the teacher. Pretty much a safe place for them. Every new book changed the main character to another character from the classroom.

I can't remember what the teenagers (both genders) looked like but I know they were from all different social groups in high school and they did fight off bad people I think or some sort of evil. I believe one student had a power of shape shifting or taking over a body. One could read minds. One was able to become invisible. They were a part of this class to control their abilities too.

Amanda sets out to rescue her one-time victim from obscurity - as well as rescuing herself from Tracey's life.

  • Better Late Than Never

While Jenna is happy to discover what it's like to have a proper parent, the gifted class have their concerns, but will Jenna listen?

  • Here Today, Gone Tomorrow

    Shy, dreamy Emily's premonitions aren't always quite right, and even she does not trust them. But when her classmates start disappearing, someone has to listen.

  • Finders Keepers

  • Speak No Evil

    Everyone in the gifted class has a secret, but Carter Street is the most mysterious student of all. He never speaks, and no one knows who he is or where he came from; they just know that like them, he's special. But there's something going on behind Carter's blank stare - something dangerous!
