“Nerve” is a stand-alone novel written by Jeanne Ryan. The book has now been turned into a movie casting Dave Franco and Emma Roberts as main characters.

Vee is the kind of girl that always stays in the back; she does not stand up and lives in the shadow of her best friend Sydney. Tired to be the one that never takes risks she decides to take part in an online game in which you have to perform dares. At first she does it for fun and to prove herself she can do it. However, after her first dare she is given the opportunity to play more for really good prizes. Is then when she meets Ian who will become her partner in the game. However as they go through the dares they became more and more intense and they will find out that getting attention and becoming popular is not always the best thing.

“Nerve” was a really interesting thought-provoking book. I thought the idea of the book was really original and really well developed. I devoured the book; I could not stop reading especially once the story gets really intense. However I did miss to know more about the other characters specially Ian, whose story is not really revealed even at the end.

To sum up, I think “Nerve” was a really interesting and intense book I would really recommend to everyone. Now, I cannot wait to see how it was turned into a movie.
