Rating: Summary: Forever a Work of Art Review: I thought Peter Lerangis did an exquisite job at creating a suspensful setting. This book is about a 14-year-old, Adam Sarno, still trying to relieve himself of the four years of grief in result of his best friend drowning in a hockey accident. He finds a video camera that everyone thinks is broken, but he can see into the past with it. Is he merely insane or gifted? The ending was very shocking.
I found this book very enjoyable. I couldn't put it down. The excitement Peter Lerangis crafted into it was amazing. I loved it, I recomend this book to anyone who loves suspense.
Rating: Summary: Watchers Rewind... Back to a Past that CAN be changed... Review: Before I was given this book, it was like pulling teeth to get me to read. After beginning this book, I REALLY could not put it down. I just had to turn another page. And another. And another. It was almost like participating in a soccer game where you just don't know what's going to happen next. I was caught reading this book in class at school. The teacher thought it was so cool that I was so involved in the book, that she actually GAVE me the book! She had never seen me like that, she couldn't believe I was actually reading. Really I couldn't believe it myself! THIS IS A GOTTA READ BOOK!
Rating: Summary: A very emotional and downright creepy story Review: Four years ago, a boy named Edgar died in an accident while playing a game of ice hockey. His best friend, Adam, is always reminded of that night in his dreams. He knows he could have helped him and he knows he tried, but the fact remains...it was his idea to go out and play on that ice with Edgar and his other friend Lianna. Even though he knows what happened, he doesn't remember it at all for some reason. Nobody will explain to him what happened, either, because they know he's blocked his memory out for a reason. But he was there and he feels ashamed and guilty, worried that he may never know the details...until one day when he comes across a camera that acts strange, displaying the wrong picture and doing other similar things. Adam presumes it's broken until he see's something from four years ago through the lens of the camera. He steps into the scene in which he is ten and reading a book, and it becomes his reality until he chooses to leave or the camera is disturbed. He uses the camera a few other times and actually rearranges history by interfering with the scenes he experiences. Nobody else can see this, either. The four-year anniversary of Edgar's accident is coming up in a few days and Adam is eagerly awaiting the moment so that he can bring Edgar back. The camera, however, will show Adam things he will not want to see. It will show him the truth, but the truth is far from what he thinks happened. In fact, it's much worse. Soon, the camera is missing and time is running out before the day arrives. Adam must retrieve it in time and keep it safe while he attempts to change history and bring back his best friend from the dead.The second book in the Watchers series is far superior to the first. Peter Lerangis has well-developed his knack for writing the mysterious and suspensful, and in this book even the innermost emotions of a hurting person. It will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very last sentence when a shocking ending via Sixth Sense occurs. I enjoyed this book way more than Last Stop and I found it even more envolved and intriguing. It should not be overlooked by anyone of any age.

Rating: Summary: Full of Suspense! Review: It was great, I loved it! I couldn't figure out why Adam's friend (not gonna say her name) was so negative! I couldn't wait to finish reading the story, and when I did I wished I had the other books! It's about a guy named Adam, aged 14, whose friend died when he was 10. Adam can't remember what happened. According to another of Adam's friends, Adam was the one who killed his friend. Then Adam finds a video camera that shows him the past and Adam uses it to find out more about the his friend's death...

Rating: Summary: unusual, mysterious and suspensful. Review: This book is about four friends, age 13, that find a camera that shows them the past. One of the boys uses the camera to change something terrible that had already happened. This book makes you think about the importance of friendships and how important it is to live each day. I suggest this book to anyone who likes sit-on-the-edge-of-your-seat mysteries. The only thing I didn't like about the book was the ending. By the time I got to the middle of the book, I already knew how it would end.
Rating: Summary: So Freaky It's Great! Review: This book is fantastic. I really love it. It's so thrilling, you never know what will happen. The part that got to me is when he saves the dog's and his best friend's life. The story is so clear and understandable. Once you start this book you won't be able to put it down. This book deserves a 5 star rating.
