Customer Reviews

The Murder Game

I chose this book because my older sister suggested it to me. When i first heard the name of the book, i thought it would be a good book. When i saw the cover, it wasnt as appealing as the title. It was only the title and a picture of a doll. While I got into the book, i realized that the cover was a portion of the story. After i figured that out, I started to think that the cover was very clever. The main character of this book is Meg Redding. Meg is the kind of girl that you would call an outcast. She doesnt have many friends, and she is very unpopular at school. Meg loves mysteries and solving them. When she was invited to the murder game she was very excited. Meg is a very unsecure girl, and she is afraid of upperclass bullies. I enjoyed reading this book. It drew me in, like i was one of the detectives in the story. It gave me great details and clues in solving the murder. I especially liked how the book made me want to read more and more and not stop. This book had a lot of cliffhangers that contributed to my continuous reading. Overall, this is a book very worth reading.

GOOD SUSPENSFUL BOOK

EVEN IF I WASNT FORCED TO READ THIS BOOK, I THINK THAT IT WOULD HAVE CAUGHT MY EYE. THERE ARE MANY SUSPECTS TO CHOOSE FROM, BUT THEY ALL HAVE A REASON TO KILL. TO FIGURE OUT THE MURDERER, YOU NEED SOME GREAT DECECTIVE SKILL.

YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO PUT THE BOOK DOWN.

THE BOOK IS ABOUT SOME CHILDREN THAT HAVE A BIRTHDAY PARTY AND HAVE A SCAVANGER HUNT AND STRANGE THINGS START TO HAPPEN. A FEW CHARACTERS GET KILLED AND YOU HAVE TO READ THE WHOLE BOOK TO FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENES IN THE END
