I found this story very intriguing and suspenseful. So much so that I had a hard time putting it down. I would recommend this book to anyone that enjoys suspense.

When i was in 4th grade i had to read it for school. At first i did not want to read this book because i thought it might be boring. Yet, as i started to read it, it started to enbrase me like a blaket around a baby and i couldn't put it down. Even though somethings they say are hard to understand. i think it's a great book!

I loved this book. Its kind of scary but funny to. A little sad. Its just a lot of stuff mixed up in this book to make it one great book.

Really good book

This book teaches a very good leason in life that im pretty sure alomost every can apply to their life. I read this book in school and ever sence then i am always reminded of the leason i was taught.
