Though I am no more a teen, I love a good teen book. This book was fast-paced and entertaining. I am now going to read "Into the Dark" and I have great expectations from it.

This book is relly simple and an amazing horror books for 11 years olds. The book leaving its 2 to 4 starting pages is really intereting. This book till the end keeps you engrossed. Dont think about it just press the buy button. BTW it comes free with kindle unlimited. If your looking for some good horror, go for it.

I have read another book by CJ Loughty (into the dark) and it was equally wonderful. I love a good book, and being a author myself, I know this is a good book. Its packed with both humor and horror which is a lovely combination. But (this is just my opinion) you could have added a few lines at the end to let us know what happened to Josh. Did he really get punishment by Mr.Lowe? Nevertheless, it is amazing! Worth buying! I highly recommend!

My grandson enjoyed reading this book but he said it was not as scary as he expected from reading previous reviews. That is why we have given it 4 stars.

Parfait pour apprendre mais...
Reviewed in France 🇫🇷 on 6 March 2023Verified Purchase
J'ai acheté ce livre pour évaluer mon niveau d'anglais, c'est facile à comprendre même si je coince sur certains mots mais l'histoire est facile à comprendre, c'est simplifié.
J'ai mis deux étoiles parce que la mise en page de ce livre est juste inacceptable : pas de chapitres, pas de tables des matières, la pagination est toujours à droite (jamais centrée), les textes ne sont pas "justifiés" à gauche et à droite, pas d'alinéa, pas de trait pour identifier un dialogue juste des apostrophes, etc...
Bref, la mise en page est inexistante, c'est juste un pavé de feuilles... ou un brouillon (ou un manuscrit non travaillé) que l'on a imprimé.
C'est cher pour un livre qui n'a même pas fait l'effort d'une mise en page.

9 Year old could not put down

I feel like the headline says it all, but seriously. My 9 year old son sat on the couch asking if he could keep reading because "the book is getting so good". I have not found any book that can hold his attention, that he WANTS to read and I am beyond thankful this book did it for him!
