Why read it?

1 author picked If You Find Me as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Equally striking is the power of a secret, and how its revelation changes everything. In addition, through reading If You Find Me, I learned a way of using punctuation that creates tension and immediacy.

From Beth's list on YA about broken people.
