It seems to me that everyone who rates this either gives it a 1 or a 5. All in all, it was great, but it did leave you with an empty feeling inside of you, like the story got done before it started. Oh yeah, I would recomend this for people who aren't allowed to say 'sucked'.

This book is great, read it in a couple of days. Wish she would write a sequel.

This book also needed a good foundation and yet again it was very prdidable. In all of her stories someone is always missing.
Karen

I think this book is okay. I was a little disappointed. It seemed like a short story and was too long. I do like how the Rob and his father opened up in the end.

this book just sucked
Winton Smith

This book is the defined volume of terror. It is bad, to say the least. The author seemed to make the children act like 2-year olds. This is a book that should be avoided at all costs.
Ryan

Bd book!!!
