Yikes!!!! This is a book you have to read. Find Me by Romily Bernard, a debut YA novel, is full of suspense. I could not put it down. I will admit I’m not a big fan of YA mysteries but every now and then one crops up that is worth reading and Find Me is definitely one. I had one chapter to go when I had to leave the house for work. Do you know how stressful that can be when you’re about to find out ‘who did it’? It took all amounts of self control. (But of course, I finished it the minute I got to work because I had a minute to spare.)
Wicket and her younger sister, Lily, are living with foster parents Brenda and Tood. Their mother committed suicide and their criminal, dope dealing father has disappeared. Wick earns a little extra money hacking computers to find information requested by uncertain wives, girlfriends, etc. Is my husband/boyfriend cheating, etc? When the diary of Tessa, a former friend who recently committed suicide, winds up on Wick’s front port with a post-it note saying, Find Me, Wick knows that what she has to do, using whatever means necessary.
Find Me is action packed. The characters are great. The writing is perfect for a mystery. Even the cover is great. My suggestion: get a drink and a snack, sit yourself down on a comfy chair or sofa and begin reading.
