About the Book

In this suspenseful thriller, teenagers in a small town are drawn deeper into a social networking site that promises to grant their every need . . . regardless of the consequences. . .

Book Synopsis

"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.

When an exclusive new social network starts granting wishes, how far will the students of Nottawa High go to get what they need?

High School Thriller: For the students of Nottawa High, an invitation to the NEED network is a dream come true--until the required 'favors' escalate from harmless pranks to deadly crimes.
Be Careful What You Wish For: Kaylee needs a kidney for her brother. Hannah wants another week of vacation. The site promises to deliver anything... for a price.
Multiple POV Suspense: Told from the perspective of several teens, watch as the network's influence spreads and desperation turns deadly.
Peer Pressure & Consequences: When everyone around you is getting what they want, saying no isn't an option. But saying yes could get you killed.

Review Quotes

"Charbonneau delivers a tightly paced thriller packed with enough tension to keep teens hooked until the dramatic finale." --School Library Journal "Joelle Charbonneau made test-taking terrifying in her best-selling trilogy, The Testing. Now, she turns her dystopian eye towards social networks and teens' wishes in Need." --EW.com "A fast-paced read that teens antsy to untangle the mystery will devour...hand to teens looking for a thought-provoking, timely thriller." --Booklist "Charbonneau still has a few surprises in store to leave readers questioning their trust in (and anonymity of) the internet and the selves we expose when we think no one is watching." --Publishers Weekly
