I Need You to Read This
by Jessa Maxwell
My rating for this book is 3.5 but since GoodReads doesn't give half stars I have rounded up to 4.
The premise of the book is interesting. It starts by telling you two things, that Alex is running from her past and second that Francis, the writer for the column Dear Constance, gets murdered.
The narrative is from Alex's point of view with anonymous letters interspersed between chapters to Dear Constance by the lost girl. I don't think it was much of a revelation of who the Lost Girl is, but it was a nice way to learn more about that character. My heart went out to her and I was horrified by what she had to put up with.
My favourite characters were Janice and Raymond. I would like a book based on them to be honest.
Overall the whole story felt lukewarm to me. I didn't love it but it is worth a read.
