Need To Know by Karen Cleveland

3.0

Need To Know was a much-talked about book so I was really excited to get stuck into it, which I managed to do over the Christmas holidays! I’m not going to lie, I found it a bit slow to start, with a lot of focus being on thoughts and emotions as opposed to actual stuff happening, if that makes sense?! But, once it gets going, it REALLY gets going!

I’m a huge fan of CIA/FBI, basically any Agency-type books. I love the covert-ness (probably not a real word, but hey!) of it all. The secrets, the slyness, it all makes for a great read because you know something is going to happen, but you have no idea what direction it will come from. Need To Know definitely had this in spades!

It’s hard to know how much of this is actually possible in real life, because Need To Know required a little suspension of belief at times. But if it can be done in real life, then OMG because its crazy to think that this sort of thing can happen. It makes for interesting reading though, and it will definitely pull you in!

Definitely enjoyed this one. It is gripping, and once it gets going, its pretty fast-paced too. It left me with questions at the end, so I’m hoping there’s another book coming as I’d love some answers, haha!

Recommended for sure!
