I teach high school remedial reading and this book was in the collection the local teen librarian made for my classes. Only 1 student chose this during our “speed date a book” activity so I took it home and read it this weekend. OMG so good!!! It reminded me a lot of the movie Nerve. Very quick read, short chapters, and easy to get sucked in!

This is the synopsis:)

This book sounds so interesting anyone read it ?

I loved the writing style of this book. This book is a little scary showing what teenagers will do to get something they "need."

⭐️⭐️⭐️
This was the first YA thriller that I read, and I admit I had to stop reading it before bed most nights because of the intensity of it. The book highlights how far teenagers are willing to go to get something that they classify as a 'need'- iPhones, concert tickets, money etc and the repercussions of their choices. I quite enjoyed the constant mystery throughout.

A group of high school students are invited to join a new social networking site that appears to grant their requests in return for completion of a task.

Started this audiobook a couple days ago and I am almost halfway through it. Enjoying it so far. It's a terrifying concept.

This book explores a terrifying social engineering concept that can only be executed with the help of a mad scientist! All it takes to hook in unwitting victims is a simple question: what do you need? 😯 Won't say more, to avoid spoilers. ~ #Day27 #MadScientist #octphotochallenge #bookphotochallenge ~ @LibrarianRyan

Yes please.

This book was just OK. I didn't really engage with the main character and the book has pacing issues. It was very slow till the last 5th or so then it rushed to the end. Not horrible, but not great.

Reading in the wild. hoping to finish this today.
