Narrative As Books Need
alternate cover edition for ISBN 0544416694What do you really need?
One by one, the teens in Nottawa, Wisconsin, join the newest, hottest networking site and answer one question: What do you need? A new iPhone? Backstage passes to a concert? In exchange for a seemingly minor task, the NEED site will fulfill your request. Everyone is doing it. So why shouldn’t you?
Kaylee Dunham knows what she needs—a kidney for her sick brother. She doesn’t believe a social networking site can help, but it couldn’t hurt to try.
Or could it?
After making her request, Kaylee starts to realize the price that will have to be paid for her need to be met. The demands the site makes on users in exchange for their desires are escalating, and so is the body count. Will Kaylee be able to unravel the mystery of who created the NEED network before it destroys them all?

Then the tasks they are asked to do become darker and some kids are dying.The main character, Kaylee, asks for something that is truly a need (not a
"The single biggest existential threat that's out there, I think, is cyber." ----Michael Mullen, a retired United States Navy admiral Joelle Charbonneau, an American author, pens her latest YA thriller, Need, that is about a bunch of high school teenagers falling prey to the world of cyber crime- a website which would fulfill their wishes if they perform the tasks against it, like fulfilling a challenge, and within no time the addictive cyber world pulled them into darkness coming out from
Need is one of those books that makes me acutely aware of the fact that Im a very nearly thirty-year-old woman reading a book written for people half my age. This puts me in an awkward position maybe one that Im in more than I realize, but with Need, I really feel it because while I may find Need dumb, illogical, patronizing, and actually kind of insulting to the demographic its targeted at, I have no goddamn idea how actual teenagers might react to it.So thats where Im at with this review.
