Summary: The Body of Christopher Creed
Review: The Body of Christopher Creed was the type of book that you do not wnat to put down. The story was told in an awkard way. Torey, the main character in the story, looks back on the past and tells it in a way that it seems to the reader like it would be in present tense. Christopher Creed was a kid that everyone loved to pick on. He was the type of kid that got hit when someone was upset or pushed off the bleechers for a good laugh. Then one day he just disappeared with no signs of murder, suicide, or abduction. The only clue left behind was an email sent to the school principal. The person that was bothered most by the missing child was Torey Adams. Torey was one of Christophers classmates. The disappearance was a major turning point in his life. He and some friends set out to find Christopher. What they found on the search is for you to find out after you read the book. It won't be what you expect.
I thought the story was well told. It had a great ending. It will completely suprise the reader. It sure did me!

Summary: The Body Of Christopher Creed - Suspenseful Book
Review: The Body of Christopher Creed, written by Carol Plum-Ucci, is an intriguing novel filled with tons of mysterious twists and turns. This book is based upon the disappearance of a seventeen-year-old boy, Christopher Creed. Christopher was known as an outcast among his peers, which is what makes his disappearance more interesting to read about. The vanishing of Christopher haunts the main character, Tory Adams. When the blame of Christopher's mysterious disappearance is placed upon Tory, rumors begin as well as insanity, when his days start to fill with endless searches for him. This tragic incident turns into an obsession of Tory's, and his curiosity leads him into trouble wherever he goes. Many changes are happening all around the town, and Tory cannot seem to take it anymore. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys reading anything suspenseful and somewhat of a mysterious edge; it will definitely keep your interest and never get boring.

Summary: Suspensful, but good!
Review: The Body of Christopher Creed is a book about a geeky 17-year-old at school. Nobody really ever liked him, nor payed attention to him except for when the bullies beat him up. But one day he suddenly disapears. Now everybody cares just enough to think, "where is he?", "Is he dead", "Did he commit suicide?" Answer these any many more questions as you read this book yourself.
I thought this book was pretty good. The author did a great job in keeping you in suspense. the writer sucks you into the book until the end. At the end, you'll find a nice surprise. So overall, I liked it and defintely recommend it to all.

Summary: this book is not worth the time
Review: I am adding this book to my 'to painful to read list', it's that bad. Anti-church, anti-parent, anti-adult, anti-small town, gives suicide how-to tips, continues the tiring battle of popular vs unpopular...all this in just the first forty-three pages. Blah.

Summary: The Whereabouts of Christopher Creed
Review: The Body of Christopher Creed by Carol Plum-Ucci is a thrilling and suspenseful novel. The main characters, who include Christopher Creed, his mother, Sylvia, Torey Adams, his mother, Susan Adams, Ali McDermott, Bo Richardson, and Chief Bowen, come alive throughout the book and bring the reader into a world of mystery and intrigue. The story takes place in a small town named Steepleton in New Jersey.
Chris Creed, a teenage boy who many children disliked and considered the class 'freak,' disappears leaving a note that makes everyone wonder what could have possibly happened to him.
Bo Richardson, a tough boy with a history of problems and who had a prior encounter with Chris Creed, is considered to be involved with his disappearance. Sylvia Creed is convinced that Bo is responsible for her son's disappearance and possibly even his death.
Torey Adams tries to uncover the mystery of exactly what happened to Chris Creed. Torey is a popular, privileged boy who has led a rather sheltered life. He is also a close friend of Ali McDermott, the girlfriend of Bo Richardson.
Susan Adams, a lawyer, comes to the aid of Bo Richardson when Chief Bowen tries to arrest him.
The book is very well written, and it keeps the reader's interest from the beginning to the very end. Does Chris Creed ever appear again? Did he really run away or was it a suicide or an abduction? Most importantly, was the disappearance of Chris the result of foul play? A boy named Digger Haines had disappeared from the same town thirty years ago. Could the two incidents be related? Did both boys just disappear or was murder involved in their disappearance?
The book answers most of the above questions. The story shows how the people in this small town are quick to blame others for events that could have been corrected or changed by them. Perhaps if they had acted differently, Chris Creed would still be living in Steepleton. The author makes the story unfold with many interesting twists and turns about the present and the past. One question is never truly answered, and the author leaves the real answer up to the reader. Each person should read this book to determine the outcome for themselves. This book is definitely worth your time and effort.

Summary: I Found The Body
Review: This book is a frightening incite into the world of the beautiful people. "you all have perfect lives- and when something happens like a sufferring kid turns up missing- it's like the joke of the century or something. Because your lives are perfect." This book have a wounderful mysterious story that really get into what teasing and harmful words and punches can do, without preaching.

Summary: This is a book?
Review: This book was horrible. I admit, since it was a mystery, I read it without putting it down for one whole day. But, after I read, I was going to do a report on it and I realized that this book was horrible. The important parts were not described well eough, causing me to make inferences. I hope the author does better with her next book.

Summary: The Greatest Book Ever!
Review: This was such a good book! I am a junior in high school, so its rare that I actually read books, but "The Body of Christopher Creed" (a book I purchased online) was the greatest book I ever read! Carol Plum-Ucci does such a good job of mixing in all the different elements of being a teen and putting it into one awsome mystery novel. I generally hate reading books without being told so...but the back cover description just seemed so interesting...i had to read it! I reccomend this book to people who love mysterys and suspense! if i could i would give it 6 stars!

Summary: Couldn't Put It Down
Review: After reading this book I realized the struggles some students went through in my school. It allowed to me see what some children had to grow up with and that some kids might have bad reps but are overall good kids. I didn't realize the given events were happening in front of me until I had the chance to read this book. It shows that you don't know someone until you get to walk in their shoes. I recommend this book to anyone who likes a good mystery\ thriller. The book is like a racecar-it just takes off. It's non- stop action till the last page. If you went to high school, you'll love this book.
