Book Review 33: Nerve by Jeanne Ryan

Well, I didn't fall in love with this book. It was a quick, interesting read, and I enjoyed it, but it wasn't one of the best books I have read this year. There are a few f-bombs, and other language in the book, but it is not excessive. Nerve is a fairly clean book (proof above). I would say it is a mix of a thriller, Young Adult, mystery (sort of...). It isn't all that violent, isn't gory at all, there are no explicit scenes, so it is a safe book to read (for those who are careful about such things (as I am...), this is a book for you). Vee is a girl who comes out of her shell, and shows the world that she is growing up, and that she needs her freedom. She finds out the truth about the game, and about the people she has trusted for so long, along with finding the guy of her dreams. This is a pretty fascinating book, and I do recommend it, but even though it says for fans of The Hunger Games, don't go into thinking that it is going to be like/similar to The Hunger Games, it is nothing like THG, the only similarity is that they are battling against each other. Anyway, if you do read it let me know what you thought, and if you have read it, what did you think of it? Let me know!

She has lived all over the world, raised in a family with eleven brothers and sisters. She spent her early childhood in Hawaii and the rest of her growing-up years trying to figure out a way to get back there, with stops in South Korea, Michigan and Germany along the way. Before writing fiction, she tried her hand at many things, including war game simulation and youth development research. But decided it was much more fun to work on stories than statistics.
These days, she still love Hawaii, but have found her home under the moody skies of the Pacific Northwest.
