Reviews

I loved this! It is not often I come across a really well-written, suspenseful, thrilling horror novel written for the young adult demographic. There is no sex, no drugs, no extreme language... just thrilling, creepy horror that satisfies even my creepy taste as an adult! I also enjoyed the fact that this book can be just as easily enjoyed by guys. My 16yo son has read this book, too, and is as big a horror fan as I am and he loved it. -- Kiki870
