Couldn't put this one down!
Both of these books are wonderful!I read them cover to cover!Terri Blackstock has done it again!

Awesome book
Terri Blackstock has done it again. This book made me think of the end of time...when we all must come together...trust in God for our needs and know he will provide as he says in scripture.What an awesome book and ending!

Great second chapter to the series!
I really loved this next book and now can't wait for the third book in this Restoration series.In this book, services and functions improve a bit (using pre-computer technology) and the people become very practical.Concerns of left-behind children, etc. come into the picture.

Great young adult book
Code Orange kept the attention of my 12 year old daughter who really doesn't like to read.It was on a list of approved books at her school for summer reading, so I was reassured that it would be appropriate for her age.I would recommend it to others of this age group.

Code Orange
Code Orange took a long time for me to get a hold of and it was pretty much worth the wait. I found that this book was very exciting and I enjoyed it very much.
All About Orange Code.
This book takes place in New York City in present time. Mitty is a 15-year-old boy who thinks that life would be so much easier without school. The only reason that he makes himself go is Olivia. Mitty takes advanced biology, and he's not really sure why. His class is assigned to research a infectious disease using books as their textural references. If he does not make a good grade on this test, he'll go back down to regular biology. Mitty would be fine with that, but it would mean not being in Olivia's class. So he decides to do the project. He chooses Variola Major, commonly called smallpox. While researching, Mitty comes upon a envelope stuck in between the pages of a disease book. When he opens it he finds several, what he believes were once smallpox scabs from a 1920 epidemic. As Mitty is writing his paper, he describes what smallpox does to your body. I recommend not reading these parts on a stop-and-go bus ride on the way to school, it only makes it worse. At the end of the chapters, the author tries to scare you by implying that the scabs had gone into his nose, and were affecting Mitty. He himself can not decide if he actually has this disease which he and the rest of the world thought no longer existed, or if he is simply imagining it.

Superb suspense and real life issues.
Edgar winner, Werlin, combines suspense with real life problems as Matt and his sisters Callie and Emmy try to keep their volatile and unbalanced mother happy. One day in the convenience store they witness Murdoch stopping a kid from being abused and become obsessed with him. For Matt's birthday, Callie finds Murdoch's address but their mother finds it and takes them all over to Murdoch's house. They begin dating and kids' lives look so much better but Murdoch quickly realizes that the mom is unbalanced and breaks up with her. Each day with their mom raises the question of survival. Will she drive the car with all the kids in it into oncoming traffic? The relationships between the siblings are richly depicted and Werlin's pacing is excruciatingly good. It is a page turner.

Richie's Picks: THE RULES OF SURVIVAL
As Matt explains, it was a sweltering Boston evening, and a date night for their mother. Matt was thirteen at that point, and Callie was eleven on that evening they left their five year old sister Emmy sleeping alone in the apartment, climbed out the window, and raced around the corner to buy a couple of Popsicles at the convenience store. They would return home a few minutes later with the dream that a stranger whose behavior they'd just witnessed might somehow be persuaded to intercede in the frightening and dangerous world they inhabited, a world controlled by Nikki, their nightmare of a mother.

Editorial Review

The romantic horror genre reaches a new level of complexity in this novel, which manages to be simultaneously thought-provoking and blood-curdling. Kerry becomes the unwitting accomplice of an attractive, mysterious boy on the run, only to discover that he is a vampire. Can she trust her feelings for someone so alien to her? Or has she been "seduced by the glamour of evil"? An ALA Best Book for Young Adults, this was called "a tingly thriller" by Read more

Opinion of a College Student
While reading through the reviews of for this book, I've come across quite a few really negative ones. The main reasons seem to be because of the simplistic writing and the lack of concrete vampire details. I strongly disagree with those reviews and will have to add my vote to the much greater number saying what a wonderful book this is. I first read this book six years ago when I was 14, and loved it. Just recently I came across it again, and my love has become, if possible, greater. After reading quite a few Anne Rice books since this one, I think I prefer the simple writing displayed here to that of Anne Rice. Don't get me wrong, I love Anne Rice's books passionately, but I don't much like being interrupted at the climax of the story for details of a rain forest for five pages. The writing in CotN is easy to read, but the author did not sacrifice wonderful writing for the simplicity presented. The imagery is still strong, and her characters are brilliantly portrayed. That is in fact probably what I love most about the book: the characters. The plot is interesting, and the dialog is realistic and witty. As for the lack of vampire details; that is part of what gives the book its edge. As the reader you're learning about this world of vampires along with the main character and are forced to keep guessing just like her. The ending does leave a little to be desired, but its realistic and rewarding in its own right.
Awesome!
This book is one of the better teen vampire books I have found, which are really hard to find!Loved it... if you liked this one, you should certainly like The Silver Kiss by Annette Curtis Klause.I'd say those books are really closely related, but like all books, a little different.I read it in a day and I really enjoyed it!Um... I'd like to say more but I'll end up spoiling it for you!
A great vampire book
Wow this book kept me on the edge of my seat and I wanted to stay up all night and read it. A fantastic mix of vampires, action and romance.

Thrilling...
If you're looking for something thrilling to read in bed at night while everyone's gone to sleep...this is just the book you should pick up (but be prepared to stay up all night coz you won't be able to put it down before you've read till the very last page!!) Kit is a fourteen-year-old who goes to a boarding school that looked chilling at the very first sight. And then slowly the frightening mystery of Blackwood unfolds. Apparently the entire school and it's regular lessons are a mere act. A show-off. Because neither the so-called headmistress nor the teachers are at all interested to teach anything to the students. What they want from them is something very different. Something evil...

JI Ms. Raniere Period 1
The book that I read was Down a Dark Hall by Lois Duncan.This book is about a girl named Kit whose mother is going on her honeymoon so she sent Kit to a boarding school called Blackwood School for Girls.She meets only three other girls whose names are Sandy, Ruth, and Lynda.Kit wanted to go there with her friend Tracy, but the school rejected her.When all four girls first went there, they thought that the school was evil.They are feeling and seeing strange illusions and they don't know why.If you would like to find out who is behind everything and why Kit and her friends are trapped inside a school or what these illusions are, you'll have to read the book.

Safe House
Jessica Mastriani is a girl that attends Ernest Pyle High School. She has a psychic ability to find missing people by connecting with their belongings, or strangely by feeling exactly what they are feeling as they are being kidnapped. She can't stand it when the FBI tries to run tests on her to use her as help of their investigations. So one day she decides to make up a ludicrous story, stating that due to electric shock, she no longer has psychic powers. Until one day. She shows up at school as it seemed to appear as a normal day, until she enters homeroom. The one girl that sat in front of her in homeroom ever since middle school hadn't appeared in sight. Jess didn't know. She was out of town for the summer; But Amber Mackey (the girl that sat in front of her) had been murdered! First it stated out as a kidnapping, which later led to an unknown murder. Amber was the type of girl that everyone idolized. She was a cheerleader, smart popular and very pretty. Rumors began to spread quicker than the west Nile virus. Many people began to suspect that Mark Leskowski, Amber's boyfriend, was the murderer. But in Jessica's eyes, he was an innocent soul, for goodness sake, the jock of the school cried when Amber died. Then as the Amber Mackey case was yet to be solved, Heather Montrose, a student who also attended Pyle High, was kidnapped as well. But when Heather was kidnapped, Mark Leskowski was with Jessica, he couldn't possibly be the killer. Who could have kidnapped Heather? Why was Jessica messing around with a dead girl's boyfriend? So many questions that are yet to be answered. In order for Jessica to use her psychic ability to find Heather, she must have something Heather once kept with her. She must also make sure that the FBI does not suspect that she still has psychic ability.
Karen Sue we hate you
Jessica Mastriani returns from a not so great vacation only to find out most all of her classmates are angry with her. Why? Simply because lightning girl wasn't there when they needed her. Jess's fellow classmate Amber was kidnapped and then murdered. Although Jess left with every one believing that she couldn't do the psychic thing any more, Karen Sue Hanky just happened to let it slip that it worked this summer with Shane. Horrible Karen Sue throughly deserved the punch to the nose that Jess delivers to her later. When another friend is kidnapped they come for her help again, and even though Jess didn't like the girl what can she do but help and get mixed up in the mess?

Food for Thought, A Fast-Paced Plot, and Teen-Friendly Trappings: Masterful
Rash by Pete Hautman is a wry look at a possible 2070s United States, now called the USSA (United Safer States of America? United Socialist States of America?). In this dystopian society, Americans (as well as people in most other countries) have traded freedom and independence for safety. It's no longer legal to play football, or to run without wearing extensive padding a helmet. Alcohol, cigarettes, temper tantrums, hunting, large dogs - all illegal. Three quarters of people over the age of ten are on the drug Levulor, which slows their reflexes, and helps them to keep their tempers in check.

Secrets Never Die
Everyone has secrets. Rosewood, Pennsylvania is no different from any other town in that regard. Spencer, Aria, Emily, and Hanna all have their own secrets that they'd prefer remain that way. These are secrets that only one person knew: their best friend, Alison, who vanished four years ago without a trace.
A + entertainment for adults and teens
I have to say I absolutely loved this book! Since I'm not a teen, I enjoy reading the more scandalous books like The It Girl and Private (by Kate Brian) series. Pretty Little Liars is like a Deperate Housewives for teens in book format. It has all the mystery, secrets, betrayal, and friendships the show has. I highly recommend reading this book and I cannot wait until the sequel comes out next year!

LOVE LOVE LOVE this book!
i just bought this book and OH MY GOD i love it. it is juicy and gossipy and very fun. my other favorite books are the clique and gossip girl, but this is just as good. I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE NEXT ONE! whoever gave this one star is totally wrong! me and my friends are totallllly obsessed. ... Read more

What's So Funny?
I found this book not morally complex or sophisticated so much as just plain offensive and cruel.I don't see the point of taking us inside the minds of teens who would even consider such a brutal crime as kidnapping and terrorizing another human being.This has none of the layers and provocative questions of "Lord of the Flies."It was, to me, pointless.Most teens I know are interested in cleaner fare, in deep questions about life on other subjects.And despite the predominance of disturbing themes and plots in teen novels, many teens I know look for other books instead; they really aren't that interested in stories of kidnap, rape, incest, suicide, and murder.

Every Teen's Secret Fantasy Revealed
Killing Mr. Griffin was the first Lois Duncan book that I have read and already I can't wait to get my hands on all of her other novels. This book tells what would happened if teens actually carried out their secret desires of killing their toughest, least understanding, and most hated teachers. The story has the five major sterotypes of high school;the shy, nerdy,smart girl;the beautiful, all-american, seinor body president; The popular,cute, blonde cheerleader;the misunderstood, expressionless,cool guy; and the big,loud, sports star. I liked how Lois Duncan brought these five different students together to hatch an unknownly deadly kidnapping plot. My two problems with this book is it kepted switching from one character to another and it was hard to tell who the definite main character was. It eaisly could have been Susan but then again David was a very important character. Also, I wanted to find out what the student's sentences were and if Mark went to jail or a mental hospital. But other than that I would definatly recommend this book to my friends.

It was Thanksgiving Dinner when it all began, everyone was over celebrating at the Mastriani's. The Ambromowitz's, The Lippman's, and unfortunately Great Aunt Rose, when Dr. Thomson their new neighbor that moved in across the street at the old Hoadly place.

She had other things on her mind like skipping out on her families Thanksgiving and heading over to celebrate with her boyfriend.

Code name cassandra
I am a big fan of Meg Cabot I've read I think a little more than 10 of her books and liked all but one. This book I love although I'm almost finished 80% really.
the talents
Do you remember the parables of the talents? Jess would hate that one. All she wants to do is bury her talent under a bushel, in a hole, or anything. Or lose it. Whatever, she just wants to be a normal girl and get Rob Wilton to declare his undying love for her. She'll settle for the latter, oh- and get the FBI off her back. You see, since being hit by lightening, she is psychic, and can find missing people once she sees their picture. Naturally, the fibbies are interested. Since Jess does not want to wind up a lab rat, she has lied, saying she lost her powers. Still, she regularly makes secret calls to the missing persons' hotline to tell them where a missing child might be found. Jessica At Orchestra Camp
Jessica has supposedly lost her ability to locate people.Now she is working as a counselor at an orchestra camp.But things quickly go sour when she is pushed into running a boy's tent and her old nemesis from school is brought in to fill in her old place.To make things worse, her celebrity status is not completely unknown amongst the campers and staff.

Not what I was expecting
When I first read the back of this book, I was so excited. It sounded like an excellent read. I waited until all three books came out and then I bought them.And then I read them, and was extremely disappointed. Burning
"Unseen" is a Buffy the Vampire Slayer/Angel crossover triligy focusing on a group of kidnapped teenagers.Salma, a privliged Mexican at Sunnydale Collage, goes to Buffy and Willow to help with her brother who went missing.Meanwhile back in Los Angeles, Angel gets involved with a man who was framed by crooked cops, and his psychic son.Cordelia and Wes track down a bunch of vampire worshiping teenagers.All of these stories do not come together in this book.But there is a lot of conflict; Angel seems at odds with Riley (Buffy's new boyfriend), LAPD detective Kate Lockly, and even Buffy herself.Xander get envious of Spike because of him and Anya having so much in common; Giles and Wesley have a battle of the experts.I liked this book, and I couldn't wait until the next one.One little problem is that the "Unseen" series isn't as good as "The Gatekeeper Triligy" or "The Lost Slayer" series, but still pretty good.

After reading this book I got hooked on the u.p.n. drama BuffyThe VampireSlayer and you will to. I don''t want to go into detail because I might give away the ending so my advice to you BUY IT...Read more

oh my i love this book, i didn't want it to end!
Well-written book that immediately grabs your attention
Although written for teens this book will capture the interest of adults. The characters are well-developed and you become instantly attached to them and worry about how they will survive their trials and tribulations. I could not put book the down and finished reading it over a weekend.

Dear Malorie,
Naughts and crosses is a great read.

Her best friend loves her guts but forces her to walk home when she could've driven home in a car because her friends thinks she has a lot of meat on her due to some football jock of an idiot. That's where the glitch comes in. She has super powers. Yeah: you heard right; she has superpowers.

You'll need a seatbelt, this is one bumpy ride!
WOW!That was a whirlwind of chaos and loose ends never tied up.
Didn't care for the characterizations
This book seemed pretty flat to me, compared to the characters on the TV show.Especially the sub-plot surrounding Spike.There was a lot "happening" in this book, but I couldn't be moved to care much.Unlike the show, where you can go from tears to laughing out loud in a heartbeat.

Loved it
I heard these were coming out, and it was approaching my birthday of last June, I got thise and play tickets from my mom after serious begging. She bought me them as soon as each one came out, funny thing is my best friend who doestn live at all close to me, got me the first one. But this is on the third one, it was a very well written book. The scenes between Buffy and Angel were pricless and touch the b/a shippers heart. A problem was of how much Buffy acted as if she loved Riley more than anything of the world, and Angel was past, why he dreamed about her and their forgotten day. Otherwise it is a good read, as a fan of either show, or the B/A or even b/r(gag) relationship. Just one thing to people who read my review or somethign that would never happen Nancy and Jeff read this, what the hell happend to Spike?! Is there a new crossover triogly in the making*looks hopeful* ... Read more

"Door to Alternity" continues the "Unseen" triligy with the connection between missing children in L.A. and monsters appearing in droves in Sunnydale becoming clearer.Team Angel and The Scobbie Gang are working harder than ever as they try to solve the mysteries and keep the monsters under control.Also the reason for all these strange occurences becomes clear; it dates back to a Cold War science experiment by the KGB to alter reality, all for the glory of the State.Now it is being used to try to blackmail prominant U.S. citizens to bring back the glory days.Also a gang war brakes out between the Mexican Mob and the Russians.All of this makes for a very complicated story, there is a lot going on.Sometimes it gets a little confusing, but never so bad you can't follow the story.It was ok, but certainly suffering from being the bridge book.You have a lot of information and set up for the last book.
