A Need So Beautiful by Suzanne Young

4.0

This has been described as an 'angel' book and it kinda is although Charlotte is not really called an angel. She has the 'need' and is one of the 'forgotten' and when the 'need' hits her, she has to rush off to wherever the need takes her and after seeing the person, their back story and what their problem is, she fixes it..spreading goodness and light and hope into the world. But then she is forgotten by the person that she just helped. I was conflicted when reading this book, I thought the characters were well written, Charlotte, her best friend Sarah and her boyfriend Harlin all worked really well and I really like the idea of the 'forgotten' spreading goodness, light and beauty around the world... But it was also really sad that Charlotte had to do this and know that she would eventually disappear and be forgotten by the people that she loved. It was an easy read, quick to get through but it wasn't a feel-good kind of story. I am interested in reading book two though to see where it takes us.
