Rating: Summary: Ode to Mr. Pike Review: I adore Christopher Pike. Adore him like I adore Keanu Reeves. This book made me shudder, think, and become a fiction writer. What if it did happen? What if you were trapped in someone's world with them playing with you? Christopher Pike explores this with depth, emotion, and searing pain, making it number one on my top ten Pike List. Up there with it is Sati, Master of Murder, the Last Vampire series, See You Later, Witch, Remember Me, and Fall into Darkness. All of the others are just as good. Pike rarely hits a sour note. I read his books over and over again, ever since I was about 13. I'm 22 now and I advise you, if you love suspense, sci-fi, deep characters, mystery, and Vampires, start in on his books. Even if you're past the suggested reading level!
Rating: Summary: wow Review: I don't think there's a word to describe this book. I first read this book years ago as a 7th or 8th grader, i don't remember when to be honest, its a great book and i recommend it to anyone whom likes it. Rox and Pepper are teenage couple, and one day when returning back home, they find their whole world empty, besides the other three kids, the beauty, the tough guy and the smart guy. Slowly, one by one, each of them die and the only cause anyone can think of was related to Betty Sue. Its a great book, and shows one that every teenager has a life outside of school, be they nerds or the most popular person. Christopher Pike is a master at writing these type of books.

Rating: Summary: They woke up in a dead world . . . Review: I read this book in day because I could not put it down. It draws you in the first sentence, and you cannot give it up. Roxanne and her boyfriend Pepper had a slight problem-Rox was pregnant. But in the middle of her abortion, before the actual surgery, Rox gets up and leaves. One the way home, she sees a mysterious figure in the sun, who disappears when Rox turns. She pays no attention to it; its just a hitchhiker, right? But at home, Pepper and Rox discover an empty town; they call people in other places in the world-no one. They find three other teenagers; Leslie, the perfect girl, Helter, the tough guy and the class brain, someone else whose name I can't remember. They are all directly or indirectly involved with Betty Sue McCormack, the odd girl who doused herself with gasoline and set herself on fire. They find Betty Sue's diary, which reveals secrets the people in the group had, secrets which shouldn't have been revealed . . . Then there's the stories; stories which have their names in them-if the names are slightly different. They are stories of death, pain. Soon, they begin to wonder who . . . or what Betty Sue really was. Definitely read this. It is so great, and it will leave you going "wow".
Rating: Summary: The best book by Christopher Pike!!!!! Review: I read this book several years ago and I loved it! The ending was a real shocker, I would never have expected it! This was the first book I read by Pike and its my favorite!
Rating: Summary: Memories Review: I read this book when I was 13, and I'm now 21. I have thoughtabout this book so much in the years sine I first read it. I can'tremember a lot of the detail, but I, too, remember the feeling of loneliness that accompanied this book. I loved all of Christopher Pike's books, however this one in particular is extra creepy. The books of Christopher Pike, aren't like the typical preteen books. He does not write in a condescending manner...and this is what makes his books so awesome!
Rating: Summary: The Best CP Book Review: I recommend this book to all of my friends. I've read it 4 times and it never gets old. I've practically memorized it. I love the mystery in "where did everybody go?" kinds of books. It is infused with awesome little poem/stories like my favorite "Holt Skater Takes a Walk". I might read it again. Words cannot discribe how excellent this book is. You'll feel like you're there in Salem with them. You won't be able to put it down.
