Description
If your inner voice became louder, would you listen to it?
Lexa Price is a twenty-something, transgender, drama student, who is about to have the worst day of her life. After killing a mugger in self-defence, her world crumbles and she begins to see another version of herself, called Charlie. At first Charlie claims that she only wants to help Lexa be the best possible version of herself, but Charlie’s real motivations become clearer – to have a bigger if not absolute control over the body she is convinced rightfully belongs to her.
To fight back, Lexa will be pushed to her limits…
Immerse yourself in a story about the complex issues of the human mind.

What happens when you go through a tragic event and can't cope with it? Hiw das is effect your mind?
From different crime shows we know that split personalities can be made up. If this isn't scary enough, imagine to have fight against one of those who try to do you harm ... in your brain.
I couldn't imagine how the story would evolve and that was what drew me to it. What I got, quite a unique diverse story if which I would have liked to have one more chapter to get answers for some questions and to know where I will leave the charactera when I finish reading.

Lexa is a transgender college student facing bullying when she is attacked by a mugger. This tragedy triggers a battle of her emotions with fear and anger taking charge in the form of Charlie. This book takes a dark turn to address how emotions can change a person, but teaches how to overcome certain emotions and cope with tragedy. Lexa’s story also addresses how people repress memories rather than move forward. While I think it is for mature readers, it does a decent job of explaining how the brain works through different circumstances.
Kelly M, Media/Journalist
Mind Set is a relevant and interesting read. Lexa Price is a twenty-something, transgender, drama student, and it's the story of the worst day of her life, and the havoc the day plays on her mind and her mental health. The only thing that stops it being five stars is some of the dialogue tries to hard and feels forced and unnecessary and can be confusing for the reader and it hinders their understanding of the story.
