I really, really enjoyed this book, and it is one of the best books that I have ever read. It is a little scary but keeps you on the edge of your seat and that is what I liked about it. Although this book was a little confusing because in random spots it would switch from one person talking about one thing to another person talking about another thing. Besides the confusing parts I really liked this book. MS/HS- ESSENTIAL. Student Reviewer: MM
