Only 12 more days until TBF! I’m really excited to meet all
the authors on the 18th, although I was really lucky to be able to
meet Charles Benoit, the author of You, last Friday when he visited my school.
I was really excited because not only is Charles Benoit an amazing speaker, but
his books are amazing too.
Your name is Kyle Chase. Even though you’re only a
15-year-old high school sophomore, it seems is wrong. How did you get to be
here? Was it in middle school when you stopped trying? Or was it when you made
your new friends? But you’re sure you’ll be able to turn it around at some
point. And then you meet Zack, who somehow has everyone wrapped around his
finger. You figure he couldn’t be too bad of a friend to have, especially after
he helps you out. But what will the consequences be?
I first read You at the suggestion of my best friend last
year. Golly, is this book good! It is the only book written in second-person
that I’ve actually been able to get through, and, not only that, really enjoy a
ton. You just grabs you by the throat and won’t let go – I actually stayed up
into the wee hours of the morning so I could finish it. And the ending is
certainly not one you’d expect – months later, I’m still thinking about it. You
will not only captivate you, but it’ll hold on to you well after you’re
finished. I’d strongly recommend Charles Benoit’s enthralling novel You to
anyone looking for a gripping read; and on top of that, it’s not too long, so
you’ll definitely be able to finish it before TBF. Hope you’ll come meet Charles
Benoit at the Festival!
Happy reading!
Elizabeth
