Customer Reviews

Excellent Book

I read this book a couple of times when I was a teenager (I'm 23 now) and I loved it. When I found a copy of it on here, I was quick to buy it. This is a great book, and a quick, suspenseful read. I think this now, even though I'm no longer a teen. Get this book, you won't be disappointed.

Unexpexted.

I stumbled on this book by accident, and thought "why not? it's not long, there is a madman in it and it's cheap (atleast where I got it from)." I was taken by a huge surprise. It reminded me in a way of that 80's movie "breakfast club" or some title like that - like if it had been re-written by a paranoid sadist, and a good one at that. Plenty of "who is it?" element all the way through. You wont be disappointed.

For A YA Novel... REALLY GOOD

I was pleasently suprised by this book. The pace is fast, the murders are grusome, and it is just the right length. This is an ultimate YA novel in that it moves along quickly enough, but never treats the reader as a small child. While far from a literary classic, this book is a fun read, and something I as glad I got to check out. It only took me one night to get through, and it was a perfect bed time read. Now stop reading this and pick up a copy.

Twisted

I got this book November 3rd, and finished it November 7th. This book is one of those "Must finish tonight" books. I used to stay up till way past 12 midnight reading the book. At first I thought it was -------, but it turned out to be -------. Totally twisted and unexpected! Eric Weiner is a good author, and urge you to get this book!

Spooktacular

Chilling and hair raising. A total must read!
