Resumen del Editor

"No one gets something for nothing. We all should know better." Teenagers at Wisconsin's Nottawa High School are drawn deeper into a social networking site that promises to grant their every need...regardless of the consequences. Soon the site turns sinister, with simple pranks escalating to malicious crimes. The body count rises.

In this chilling YA thriller, the author of the best-selling Testing trilogy examines not only the dark side of social media but the dark side of human nature.

a great mystery

the book itself was amazing and I liked the narrator. she did a great job

very good

very good. Great book to read. You should read it. The next book you should read!

Need

Daughter enjoyed the book. Definitely recommend adult supervision while reading this as sone of the topics and situations are mature for the younger readers.

Do you NEED to read this? No, but go on.

A decent YA thriller in the same category as Jeanne Ryan’s “Nerve”, but not in the same class. Most of the characters in “Need” are half-baked and unlikable. I can’t even say I liked Kaylee very much, but she was by far the most relatable. I was surprised when the major villain was revealed, and I almost always figure these things out well in advance, so points for that... but even then, I found the climax and resolution underwhelming. I’d recommend this story to someone preparing for a long drive or a series of long walks—it will keep your attention and won’t bore you—just don’t expect too much.

Good in the beginning

Loved the story in the beginning and through most of the book but the ending was so predictable and disappointing

WOW so great and recommend!!

This book was so great and suspenseful. I love how the book ended and the way it was read!

Unexpected

That was unexpected. I really enjoyed this book and the commentary it presents on teenage dependence on social media. A bit of glimpse of an orchestrated butterfly effect...

Action Packed

An excellent fast-paced novel that is different from other novels I've listened to. I highly recommend it.

Good story, pedantic at times

While I really got into the story, every once in a while I found myself getting annoyed by the pedantic tone of the book. Social media are dangerous and teenagers do not know what they really need, the message seems to be. Leaving out that message would have made for a much better read (and may have gotten readers thinking instead of just rolling their eyes at the abundance of references to 'the dangerous world wide web'). However, I liked the set-up of the book and still found Need a good read.

Thought provoking and a little too real

Isn't this the fear we all have today? Look how easy the California killer found it to convince his weak minded friend.
