Still nice even after 10 years
Rating:
4 / 5
Ok, I have to admit that the first time I read this book was about ten years ago, when I was fourteen. Yeah, I'm a big girl and yet I took it off my shelf and read it again after all this time. The story somehow stuck in my mind, the creepy cover haunted my memory.
After reading more grown up stuff for the past years, I felt like I had to lower my thinking a bit to get into this teenage world, but I have enjoyed the story once again.
Trish is being stalked by a man with a thousand faces, and she isn't safe anywhere, even in her own head. The mall, a place of fun and games is suddenly a maze of deadly possibilities, and chased by a madman, real or not, is quite a scary ride.
Very good book, for any age! Enjoy
Book Description
Rating:
5 / 5
Because there is not a book description for this book, I am going to write what it says on the back of the book, then I will tell you my opinion of the book:
"Trish smiles into the dressing-room mirror, admiring herself in the gorgeous white dress. Unknown to her, someone else is satching. He knows she is smiling just for him. His soft, strange voice whispers her name from the crowd. His hooded eyes follow her every move....
At first she thinks he's just a creepy customer, hanging around Muffin Mania where she works at the mall. But suddenly he's everywhere, the man with a thousand faces tormenting her day and night. He knows her secrets. There's no safe place to hide. There's no one she can tell, no one she can trust. How can she escape a madman willing to kill to make her his--forevermore."
This is one of the first books that I ever read by Cusick, and I liked it a lot. Trish works at the local mall with her friends Nita and Imogene. There she meets two guys, Wyatt and Storm. She kindof has this thing for Storm, but she can't trust anyone, and he seems mysterious. The reason she can't trust anyone is because there is a weird mysterious guy following her around in the mall, and other places as well. Trish starts to become paranoid, and she has good reason to. She even gets hurt by this weirdo. Read this book to find out what happens, and you wont regret it! The ending is surprising!
Richie Tankersley Cusick has got to be my favorite author. I have loved every book that I have read by her. I know many other people love her books as well, and I don't understand why her books are not being printed anymore! It's so hard to find them!
Here are the other great books that I have read by this author:
The Lifeguard
Vampire
Someone at the Door
Trick or Treat
Scarecrow
Silent Stalker, which isn't as good as the others, but it is still pretty good.
Suspenseful!
Rating:
5 / 5
This is the 5th book I've read by this author- all of her books that I've read have been good, but none as suspenseful as this! There isn't much real "action" until the very end but to me thats what made it scary, because there was always that undercurrent of uncertainty. The idea of being watched without knowing it is pretty creepy too.
This book keeps you guessing and keeps you reading.
