Hello fellow book dragons!
The book that I just finished reading, Tell Me Three Things by Julie Buxbaum, was never a book I even intended to read. I was volunteering at the library one day and when I was finished, I just chose a book randomly and that happened to be this one very special *amazeballs* book. I had heard about it before, and the summary never really appealed to me, but this time I thought ~YOLO~ and picked it up. As I started to read, I was immediately hooked. I know that sounds super generic and cliche, but I just could not stop reading. I mean this is one of the fastest times I have ever finished a book this long. Buxbaum’s writing is extremely eloquent, and the narrator, Jessie, phrases things in such a way that everything just makes sense. I found myself in Jessie’s personality, and I think that is one of the main reasons that I enjoyed the story so much. Anyway, Tell Me Three Things follows a 16 year old girl (Jessie) whose mother has recently died, and her father moves the two of them from Chicago to Los Angeles, where his new wife and her son live. Jessie and her father move in with their new family (even though they are complete strangers to Jessie), living in a huge modern-like mansion. Jessie now attends an extremely expensive private school, filled with wealthy students who all have parents that are actors. As Jessie is finding her way in a completely new world (without her only best friend from Chicago and a complete fish out of water) she gets a mysterious email from a person that calls himself Somebody Nobody, or SN. Supposedly the email is coming from a fellow student at the same school, and the writer wants to help Jessie find her way. Jessie and SN soon become fast virtual friends, and Jessie is eager to find out SN’s true identity. This mystery and friendship story is so wonderful, deep, and relevant, that you will not want to put it down. Find out who SN is in Tell Me Three Things!
So interesting!
