Review: Remember Me is an awesome suspense and murder story. i really enjoyed reading the book by Christopher Pike. I insist on every outgoing person to experience Remember me .

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fantasic!
Review: Words can't describe how good this novel is. Pike is a wonderful author. Best young adult novelist period. How did he get the idea for this? How could he get an idea like that. I have read Remember Me 2 and Remember Me 3 both great novels!

Summary: Wicked Wicked Good!
Review: This is a great book! I borrowed it from my friend, who is totally into a mix of mystery and romance, and this book suits her needs. Shari is a teen, with a pretty normal life. Until she attends a party at her friend's house, at which a seance is preformed, using Shari as a channel. Shari becomes frightened when her dead science partner, Peter, uses her to talk to his old friends. Shaken by the experience, Shari retreats to the balcony, where she is pushed off, by one of the few party guests. Next thing she knows, Shari is at home in bed, but neither her mother, nor her brother Jimmy, can hear her. Then a mysterious phone call comes, causing her mother to break down in tears and her brother to go white in the face. When the family reaches the hospital, Shari finds herself on the mortuary slab...Everyone thinks it was a succide, but Shari can't cross over until she finds out who murdered her. Now with the help of Peter, Shari must figure out who done it, by following her friends around, and entering their dreams. Shari must also stop the murderer from killing again, and this time it may be closer to her heart than her own body! Read this book! It was excellent!

Summary: Amazing Book
Review: I read the book Remeber Me a couple of years ago, and I found to be an amazing book. It tells the story of a viberant teen who is about to graduate from high school, but the most tragic thing that could ever happen, happens at a pary. I believe that it's a really interesting book, and towards the end (about the last 7 or 8 chapters), I really had trouble putting the book down. I immediatly went back to the library to get the conclusions. It truly is a wonderful series.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Remember Me series
Review: This book is all about a girl who find out she is dead and tries to go after who killed her. Shari, the main charactor, tell the story from her point of veiw, which makes it actually a lot more interesting. This mystery is what got me hooked on Christopher Pike books. They were the first series of him that i had read and because of this book, i have read a big majority of his books.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Remember Me : UNFORGETTABLE
Review: Shari Cooper is a typical teen in a typical town. She's good looking, has a best friend and a handsome boyfriend. Some would say she has it all. A wonderful brother, a rich family--even a Ferrari. Yeah, Shari's life is going pretty good... until the night of Beth Palmone's birthday party.

"Big Beth", as Jo calls her. The big-breasted tart who recently has been showing more than a passing interest in Shari's man. Not that Dan, her superficial boyfriend, seems to mind. Why even go to the party? No. Why should she let them ruin her good time? The others will be there. Jo Foulton, her best and oldest friend, an intelligent girl who is obsessed with the occult; Amanda Parish, her brother's girlfriend--they aren't very close, but she's willing to try being friends for Jimmy's sake. Then there's Jeff Nichols--the brother of her old crush Peter, who died two years ago in a motorcycle accident. The party couldn't be that bad...

She had no idea.


The bash winds down, until only the small circle of friends remain. Tensions are high, and people say and do things they probably shouldn't. Then Jo has an idea, and the seance begins... and something goes horribly wrong. Overwhelmed by the evening, Shari retreats to the balcony to collect her thoughts. Suddenly, she's falling. Headfirst into the concrete, four stories down. Did she jump? Or had she been pushed? If so, who was responsible? Could it have been planned by more than one person?

Shari doesn't get the chance to find out--at least, not in the conventional way. Shari Cooper is dead. Almost everyone assumes it was a suicide, and they begin to move on with their own lives... However, Shari isn't resting. In fact, she isn't even gone. Invisible, inaudible--in every sense of the word, a ghost. Unbelieveable, but true. She still exists! Shari knows she didn't kill herself, and is determined to discover the truth.

But, how will she solve the crime if no one can hear her--if she can't ask questions? And what does it matter? If she's dead, how will her loved ones ever learn the truth? Somehow, she's got to try. She can't just be forgotten... She must be remembered.

As you may well know, "Remember Me" is a Christopher Pike classic. And with good reason! The story is OUT THERE. Once again, Pike manages to present an otherworldly and strange concept in a way that is totally believable and makes sense. Who else could? My hat comes off to you, sir. The hype is yet again deserved.

Shari is a wonderful character, full of life and spirit--even though she is deceased for much of the book. The idea that a normal girl must solve her own murder is a fantastic one, and it's pulled off with the cleverness and wit we've come to expect from Mr. Pike. It's just great! I was really stumped as to what actually happened at Beth's party--oh, I had my suspicions. Most of them were red herrings or shots in the dark. The real truth is something so wild, I could hardly believe it! You won't either! Trust me.

The character of Detective Garrett was my absolute favorite. Sorrowful, beaten--yet keen and perceptive. He emotes this wonderful sadness. You can't help but be drawn to him. His desire to solve the Shari Cooper case resounds deep in his bones, fueled by more reasons than the obvious ones. But then, no one is exactly as they seem in the Wonderful World of Christopher Pike! ;)

The way in which Pike handles the idea of an afterlife is an intriguing one at least. As a non-religious person, I was expecting it to fall flat on me. It does not. Christopher Pike writes through the reader--forcing one to infuse a bit of themselves in every character. It's something that authors other than Pike sometimes struggle with. It is his gift. He is amazing. This book is amazing.

Classic cover art is provided by Brian Kotzky--a hard artist to top when it comes to the sheer essence of Pike... Danilo Ducak's scary ghost-hands cover falls completely flat and is almost... dare I say it? UGLY. I think, though, that the new photo cover really depicts the bittersweet-haunted lovliness that permeates this book. I got the cover scan from Amazon.com, so I do not know the artist. I will make an attempt to get one of these covers for myself so that we can all give accolades to the artist! Kudos to you-dos, my friend!

I was planning on waiting a while before starting the sequel to "Remember Me": "Remember Me 2: The Return." Don't be surprised if I review it soon. I was moved by this story, and would really like to see what becomes of the characters I have grown to love. Read it today. You won't be able to put it down.

After all--No one does it better than Christopher Pike!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Remember Me
Review: This is the first Christopher Pike book that I have read, but I really enjoyed it. The story has interesting twists that makes the book better. The ending was the climax of the story and it was so good I could hardly put the book down. I wanted to know who had killed her and why! I would definitly recommend this book. I'm planning on reading the sequals.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I Will Remember This Book
Review: This book was sad, funny, mysterious and a little bit of romance (I wouldn't really say that her boy friend cheating on her was romance, but...).
I thought this book was very enjoyable, but the beggining could have been a little bit better.
This is my favourite of Christopher Pike books. It is about a girl who dies by falling of off a belcony. She knows that she was murdered and she wants to find out who did it, so she trails everyone one of the people who was at the party in which she was killed and along the way she meets, Peter, a boy that she was good friends with and he had kiled himself.
Read this book if you are into any of those things that I had mentioned that this story has. You'll enjoy it.
