Broken Date (Does Her Boyfriend Really Want To Kill Her?)

Tom and Jamie have their whole future planned out. Their days look all rainbows and sunshine until Tom breaks their date. Jamie decides to go to the mall with her best friend Ann-Marie, and they're having the time of their life until Jamie sees a teenage boy rob the owner of Diamond Ranch. For some reason, the boy looks similar to her boyfriend Tom. After Jamie leaves the shop, Tom begins to act strange. Between Tom's bizarre behavior and the threatening messages on Jamie's phone, Jamie's conclusion is Tom wants to kill her because she saw his secret. Will Jamie survive her suspicious boyfriend, or is there another force at play here? Broken Date is a suspenseful thriller that keeps readers on the edge of their seats. Like the rest of his stories, R.L. Stine creates an unexpected ending. I love this one-off book. I will reread it for years to come.

I personally think that Broken Date is a story that's mysterious and interesting at the same time. But does Jamie's boyfriend really want to kill her? Or is it just a BIG mistake? It really captures a reader when they read one of Stine's books.How do you do it Stine? How does it get so interesting? Your stories sounds so easy to come up with, but I think it still kind of hard. Is it Stine? I read alot of your books and they amaze me so much with the twisting endings! It's so unknowable to guess the ending. Stine your books are amazing!

Broken Date By Delkisia

Jamie and Tom have been together for a long time. But Jamie's heart gets broken when Tom doesn't show up for a date. Jamie calls and calls but he never picksup,so she called her best friend Ann-Marie. Then Ann-Marie said how about we go to the mall to relax your mind.And Jamie said OK. When they got to the mall Ann-Marie saw some pink Reeboks for half off. Jamie didn't like the color of the shoes,so she told Ann-Marie that she would be in the Record store.But instead of going in the Record store she went into the jewelry store to buy her mom a gift. As she entered the store it was empty,so she walked further into the store.There she saw the manager getting robbed.she started to make a run to get out of there,but if she ran the robber might see her.She decides to hide behind the counter. When she takes a look at the back of the robber's head she notices that his hair is sparkly-white like Tom's. Could that be Tom? Could that be the reason why he didn't show up? Could that be the reason he didn't answer the phone? READ THIS BOOK THEN YOU'LL FIND OUT!
