Rating: Summary: COOL , BUT NEEDS A BETTER ENDING Review: A page turner but needs a better ending
Rating: Summary: GREAT BOOK FOR TEENS Review: I literally could not put this book down. I read it in about 3 hours. The story takes place at a camp where strange "accidents" start happening to the teen camp counselors. Someone at the camp knows all the counselors hidden fears and punishs them. For instance, some of their fears are snakes, water, heights and so on. "Accidents" happen involving these particular fears. Someone wants the counselors to pay. Someone who may even kill.
Rating: Summary: Good Review: I thought the book was good. This is the 1st book I read by Carol Ellis, but not the last. For the person who wrote on April 29, 2000. If u look on the side of the book, it will say THRILLER. Not YA horror, YA THRILLER!
Rating: Summary: 6 Stars !!!!! Review: I would rate this book a 6, but 5 is as high as it will let me go.Years ago, my teacher read it to me as a read aloud. It was the first time I'd ever heard of it, but since then I've read it many times myself. (I guess not all junior-high students have teachers that still read aloud! I must have just got lucky :) Anyway, it was the best book I've ever read! Since it was SOOOO great, I decided to buy it and still treasure it today. It is a book you will never forget and are sure to enjoy. It is wonderfully written. You would never suspect the person doing all the awful things!! Just when u think you've got it figured out, it throws u 4 a loop. I kept changing my mind about "Who did it". It was great. It's is very mysterious and exciting. You can't put the book down, it is so wonderful! EVERY student in our whole class liked the book !!!!(Hint, Hint) U will like it, too. Go buy it today & read it. It will soon be one of your favorites, too !!!
Rating: Summary: This book turned me into a reader of horror fiction. Review: I've never really been a fan of reading, but when I bought this book, I couldn't put it down. I was literally scared as I finished it up. Ever since, I have been searching for any other Carol Ellis young adult horror books that I could get my hands on. She is really an exceptional writer.
Rating: Summary: Great Book!..... Review: Rachel is hired as a counselor at Camp Silverlake for the upcoming session. All counselors must meet up a week before for orientation. Things get off to a great start at first, until strange things start happening. One day, Rachel is assigned the job of the upkeep on the lobby/lodge bulletin board for the upcoming campers. She decides to put up pictures of the past years at the camp. Afterwards, everyone becomes very quiet and irritated with her for no apparent reason. She soon finds out why....Seven years earlier, a camper died of an accident, and Rachel accidentally put his picture up right in the center of the board. Aside from that, unfortunate mishaps occur, such as a snake in someone's bed, etc. Even scarier, it happened to the person who has a phobia of snakes! Similar events occur, according to peoples' phobias and fears, and Rachel begins to wonder if she could also be in danger! I thought that "Camp Fear" was a great book. Suspense, drama, and humor are all evenly woven throughout the storyline to create a scary, yet practical book. The storyline, however, was a bit too predictable and the ending wasn't satisfying. I still think it deserves four stars for the suspense and author. Be sure to check out my other reviews of the following recommended books: a.) "The Stepdaughter" by Carol Ellis b.) "Someone at the Door" by Richie Tankersley Cusick c.) "Vampire" by Richie Tankersley Cusick d.) "April Fools" by Richie Tankersley Cusick e.) "The Train" by Diane Hoh f.) "Slay Bells" by Jo Gibson g.) "My Bloody Valentine" by Jo Gibson h.) "Homecoming Queen" by John Hall i.) "The Invitation" by Diane Hoh j.) All books by Joan Lowery Nixon k.) All R. L. Stine young-adult thrillers
Rating: Summary: It was mysterious yet kinda strange and frightening! Review: This book is about some young adults who used to go to camp silverlake as kids.now as adults they have to face the horror that happened a few years back of a young child who died at age seven. Can they face a horror game that somebody who wants revenge is playing with them? Read and find out.
Rating: Summary: This is HORROR? Review: This book is not horror, but it's a great suspense thriller. The fact that other reviewers have discribed it as horror confuses me, because a snake in a bed isn't really horror. It's scary, but not horror scary. Anyway, enough of picking it apart, this is a book that makes you want to read on, to find out what happens next. The person who is playing the tricks is NOT who you think it is, and there is no way of guessing that it really is him/her. A good book for thriller or horror readers, but it isn't proper horror.
