Sixteen-year-old Elena Mendoza is the product of a virgin birth. This can be scientifically explained (it's called parthenogenesis), but what can't be explained is how Elena is able to heal Freddie, the girl she's had a crush on for years, from a gunshot wound in a Starbucks parking lot. Or why the boy who shot Freddie, David Combs, disappeared from the same parking lot minutes later after getting sucked up into the clouds. What also can't be explained are the talking girl on the front of a tampon box, or the reasons that David Combs shot Freddie in the first place.

Summary
You do not kill a man in cold blood and then talk your way out of it.
Other than her real name - Mary-Magdalene Feigenbaum - fifteen-year-old Maggie’s problems seem ordinary. She has tiffs with her too-critical mother, a crush on her cute psychologist, and worries that her only friend - fellow outcast Abigail - is morphing into a popular girl, leaving her behind. But Maggie has a few not-so-ordinary problems. A voice in her head is telling her to kill. And not just anyone. Each time the target is a person who has done something terrible to someone Maggie cares for. You know what you have to do, the voice commands. Maggie struggles to resist, but the voice is relentless. And as its demands escalate, her world begins to crumble.
With rising suspense, this story of psychological horror introduces a narrator whose own unique voice and irreverent humor are unforgettable – an unlikely hero fighting a desperate battle against incomprehensible evil.

World's worst psychologist?
This guy earns a PhD for being cute, rather than being competent and perceptive. "You're a hard nut to crack." Weirdly inappropriate comment. Rorschach? Try the MMPI. People of all ages hide the most important info about themselves in therapy. Maggie most likely has schizophrenia, although people can hear angry (and worse) voices "in their heads" for many different reasons. This is a strange book. It *does* highlight the vulnerability of children and the general cruelty, insensitivity and obliviousness of the adults around them (includes domestic/elder abuse and animal cruelty).
Some young minds are more fragile than others. I don't know if this is the point of Shimko's book. I'm not sure I've understood the point. "I kill people and lie successfully"? Is manipulative, narcissistic Abigail allegedly the adolescent yardstick of normalcy? The narration of male voices is really bad. Does the end mean Maggie has gained control? Possibly. Doubtful.

A captivating read
I enjoyed this story very much. It's told from the view of a teenager with all the teenage angst & a little psychosis mixed in. I believe there was only one curse word. No sex, but it was referred to. No graphic violence, that part is left to your imagination. The narrator is the BESTI have ever listened to!! It was hard to believe all the characters were givien different voices! I do hope 2 hear her performances in the future.

Story strays as it progresses
What would have made You Know What You Have to Do better?
It would have been better if there were more people that the lead character had to "kill." The story starts off so well, and then seems to just fall flat. Lacks in action. Then, what action there is, the main character's personal involvement with another character/date, it has nothing to do with the main point of the story.
Would you ever listen to anything by Bonnie Shimko again?
Maybe
What aspect of Cristina Panfilio’s performance would you have changed?
Seems like she wasn't too able to do male voices.
What character would you cut from You Know What You Have to Do?
Abbigail. Her involvement in the book, again, adds nothing to the main story of the book...a young girl who hears a voice telling her to kill people that hurt others.
Any additional comments?
Initially this books seems to be on a much milder line of Dexter. However, as the book progresses, the action seems to die down.
