Summary: One of the best!
Review: If you like a suspenseful book, one that keeps you thinking long after you're through, then Fatality is definitely a book I would recommend to you. Filled with action, horror, crime, and clashing personalities, this book is awesome! It's one of the best I have ever read, and is my new all time favorite! =)
Fatality is just one of those books, that no matter how hard you try to you can never just put it down. It keeps you thinking, and at the end of nearly every chapter, it leaves you in suspense. Caroline B. Cooney has created a book with what seems like an extremely misleading plot at first, but later, the pieces all fit together to form one spectacular puzzle. Within this puzzle are pieces that don't seem to fit until the very end. Even after the book is finished, you'll still go back and think, "Wait a second..." or "Oh that was the secret she was keeping!" With an array of colorful characters, wonderfully detailed and vivid description, and a whole lot of suspense and mystery, Caroline B. Cooney's Fatality is one I would recommend for everyone.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the best Caroline B. Cooney books.
Review: If you love Caroline B. Cooney, or even if you have never read one of her books, I highly reccomend this book to anyone. It has love, sex, drama, suspense, mystery, and intrigue. Is the main character trying to save a murderer? Or is she trying to keep her personal life a secret? You will just have to read it to find out.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Slow moving but not bad
Review: One summer weekend four years ago Rose was invited to Angelica's beautiful house. Rose couldn't believe it back then. It was a dream come true! She couldn't wait to enjoy the pool and just party while recording her great experiences in her diary. However someone turned up dead that weekend and Rose's weekend was ruined. It turns out Angelica's dad's partner in law Frannie was murdered that weekend and he was the last one to see her. Four years later the police have reopened the case and to Rose's horror steal her diary in which she wrote her thoughts that weekend. To protect her family Rose steals the diary back. However it seems someone is out to get Rose. Whoever Rose is protecting doesn't seem to want her to protect them! Who could it be?

This book was kind of slow moving. I would recommend you borrow it at the library. I was sorely disappointed in Caroline's new book and I really didn't think the ending in this story sounded right. It was too sudden and just didn't fit in. To sum it up it was an okay book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fatality
Review: She reached for the door handle, but there wasn't one. She ran her hand over knobs and latches, armrests and protrusions. There was no way out! It was like the back of the police car. You could get in by yourself but you needed help getting out.
"I removed it, Rose," said the deep voice of the murderer. "There is no way out, no point in trying." This is one scene from the book Fatality by Caroline B. Cooney. It is a very action pack thriller written by a wonderful author, known for her mysteries.
Rose Lymond is an average teen, that is, with one exception. Rose knows secrets the cops want. Four years ago, Frannie Bailey was killed. Not just an accident, it was a murder. The weekend of the murder, Rose was on her way to spend the weekend at Angelica Lofft's summerhouse. In fact, they were there minutes before the victim was murdered.
When the cops reopen the case, they immediately go to Rose's house. They take her diary from the year of the murder. She steals it back and destroys all the evidence. From then on, Rose's normal everyday life is turned up side down. How far will the murderer go to keep her quiet?
This is a must read for anyone that loves mystery. This story really makes you understand what Rose is going through. You feel scared for her life at times, while at other times you are overjoyed and proud. Sometimes you just won't believe what you're reading. It's a really touching story that shows you the real meaning of life, love, and forgiveness. We would definitely recommend this book to anyone 12 and up that knows what it's like to have a secret that you'd do anything to keep quiet.

Summary: Fatality
Review: The book Fatality is a really great book. This book is full of suspense and thrills. I like this book because it was so exciting. I just couldn't put the book down. Most of Caroline Cooney's books are well written. Her books have a lot of twists. when you least expect something to happen it does. What I don't like is how in the beginning it is kind of slow. But then it speeds up quickly. This book is about a girl named Rose. Rose is accused of witnessing a murder. She kept a diary of the year the murder happened. This diary was full of secrets. Secrets that she didn't want anyone to know about. Then the police come four years after the murder. They start questioning her. Rose refuses to tell them anything. She claims that she dosen't know anything. The police decide to take her diary; just in case there is any evidence. But she won't let them, she takes the diary back. What she dosen't know is that someone else knows what she put in the diary. Rose's life gets of track and messed up as the police accuse her of protecting the murderer. But whats on everybodys mind is if she's protecting the murderer or not. Her friends try to stick up for her but they aren't even sure if she is guilty or not. Rose's parents don't even know whether she is protecting the individual or is really telling the truth. As time went on the police get very frusterated. they start thinking that maybe she is the murderer. When Rose's brother comes to visit he is shocked. Little did he know that she is being accused of the murder. Rose begins to think that anyone will do anything to keep her quiet. I don't want to give away the ending but that is when the real action starts. I really do recommend this book to anyone who enjoys to read action-filled books.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Awesome Book!
Review: This book is a little confusing in the beginning but it all falls together in the end. Everyone thinks Rose knows who killed Milton Loft's partner. For evidence, they take her diary but Rose doesnt want them to have it so she steals it back. Now everyone is convinced that she knows something. But does she?

Rating: 5 stars

There is a lot of surprises that would keep you wanting to read more of the book.In this book people believe she knows who murder a person, but can she rember who it ways after four years or does she even know who it was? I reccomened this to teenagers.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A Pretty Exciting and Suspenful Book!
Review: This book was about a 15 year old girl named Rose Lymond. Everyone thinks that she is perfect and that she would never do anything wrong. But one day the police come to her house and start questioning her about a murder that happended 4 years ago. Because she was right there when it happened. But she repitedly tells them that she doesn't know anything about it but they don't believe her. Rose is keeping a big secret and the police want to know what it is because they think it has to do with what happened during the murder. This book was a really good read and it was very suspenful. I loved it!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: O.K.
Review: This book was pretty good; it had a great plot but i didn't think the ending was very climactic. I never did guess what the secret was, and i had a hard time figuring out the killer. Overall, this is a 3 star book, because of the ending.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Boring!
Review: This book was so boring! I mean, the whole plot was kinda weak, (I thinkso anyway). I dont even get why the case was opened up again. And Rose was so annoying. Just give the police the diary and get it over w/. It's not like the police are actually gonna care about some ancient 7th grade gossip. Like, hello! And the person who was trying to kill her, you'd actually think that he had a thing 4 her all those years ago, not (emphasis on not) the other way around. After reading some other books by Caroline B. Cooney, this book was a real disappiontment.
