So here's the summary of a book I'm working on.

Quote:
It's New York City, in late October. Sarah J. Case is just an ordinary dweller of the big city- though she mostly keeps to herself, not very fond of other human life.

Sarah isn't exactly normal- ever since the age of seven she was able to read people's minds, which warped her own mind in turn. Sarah's been reading minds for twenty years now, and those years have done their damage. She doesn't give a damn about anyone but herself, and since she can see all the darker things going on in people's heads, doesn't really like anyone.

Along comes May Gallagher, who's had brain surgery to prevent people from reading the thoughts in her head, who moves in across the hall of Sarah's apartment. May tries to befriend Sarah, who, long story short, doesn't take too kindly to May's attempts at friendship, but grows more tolerant of her over time.

Then one day, while in a diner, Sarah unintentionally reads a man's mind and finds out he's May's ex-boyfriend, who plans to kill May. As a psychic, Sarah could easily turn him in, but her problem is-

Does she even care that much?

Maybe something about a wall, or barriers? 'Freedom of the Concrete Mind' (takeoff on Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, but what the hey?) or 'Freedom Behind the Wall'? Just suggestions.

I kinda prefer catchy one-word titles, but I'll consider that.

Cross-stitching

I dunno... for some reason, I re-read the summary of the story again... and then cross-stitching occured to me.... reading minds could perhaps develop into something offensive... if you can re-arrange someone's head to your liking, as if making a dress, cross-stiching all the nasty bits into something better.... just a thought... coz I think Sarah shouldn't call the police... maybe she can give her give out her own judgement....

I'm excited to read more! Seems like a very good story.
The main character Sarah seems very much like Psycho Mantis from Metal Gear Solid. Mantis red many people's minds and was disgusted with each and everyone of them. They all had the same obsession. The same past and future.
