Summary: My Review
Review: Although, this book is designed for children, I found it pretty interesting. I think it is a good book for all ages. It is a good entertainment, if you want to read something with less violence but with a lot of suspense. I'd say it is an okay book.

Summary: TRUE
Review: I read this book over 10 years ago, and I still haven't forgotten the title, why? Because this book helped me open my eyes and realise that not everyone is good, that some people are mean and that we have to be aware and informed in order to be able to do something about things.

I don't have children, but I do have young cousins, and the simple information provided along the story of knowning your phone number, your street and so on has helped a lot in preparing them, without scaring them.

I think its a book for all ages, even though it was written for teenagers, and it is a very good suspense story.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Ann Martin at her best!!!!!
Review: Magggie's half sister, Courtie, has been kidnapped and Maggie's determined to get her back! Usually Leah(Maggie's stepmom) and Maggie disagree on a lot of things, but they both know that if Courtie's not back soon, well, she may never be coming back. The prime suspects are Leah's ex-husband, Maggie's mother, and a creepy teenage dropout. CD and BSC fans, this is a realistic, heartfelt book with characters that"guide" you through the book, and for those readers new to Martin's books, this is a good book to begin on. I highly recommend it!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A mystery that is filled with suspence and scares.
Review: Maggie and her brother are in charge of their half sister whileMaggie and her brother's dad and step mother go on a long delayedhoneymoon. The first couple days at home by themselves are fine until Maggie puts Courtie, her half sister, on the bus that takes her to school. When Maggie gets home, her sister isn't there and when she calls the school, they say that she wasn't even in school. Calling the police and coming up with a lists of suspects, then questioning each one is hard for Maggie to do but she does it. Then one night, Maggie's mother calls. She tells Maggie and her brother to meet her at a resurant a couple days later and says she has a present for them. Is this present something that they want but don't want to get from her. I know I probably gave you too much information but I think you should read this book because it is really good. :) Thanx for reading my review. Also you can go on my mystery web page ( ) and see more mysteries I think you will enjoy!

Summary: Last Days of School
Review: Maggie took her four year old sister Courtenay on the bus ,so she can go to her pre-school,but Courtenay's school called home that afternoon saying Courtenay didn't attend school that day.Maggie calls the cops saying Courtenay was missing . Mike starts calling everyone they know.The detectives help them find her.Throughout the book the detectives ,Maggie ,Mike an there school try to find there little sister.

The best partof the book was the suspense because everytime you stop reading you just want to keep on reading to find out what happens next. Also,the book was very realistic for the reason that everyday there are kidnapping in other places around the world .In addition, it was emotional when they didn't get information about Courtenay. For a person like me who doesnt like reading you will like this one. THE ENDING WILL SURPRISE YOU!!!!!!!!

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Missing Since Monday
Review: This book is by Ann M. Martin. It tells a story that I think may have happened to her or even one of her friends and she wrote about it because it sounded like a really good thing to write about at the time being .I also think she wrote it because others could relate to it and maybe even tell others about it to get there friends to read it. Those people might have even tried to contact her to find out how she felt when her s or her friend's sibling had disappeared. I guess all that I am saying is that this event happened sometime in her life so she wrote it to kind of describe it with out saying names. This book is a non-fiction and is a really good one if you are willing to sit down relax a while and read till you get tired or hungry.

Now the book is mainly about a little girl named Courtney but goes by coutie. Who gets on the bus and arrives to school but a women calls her over and she walks over and winds up in a car wit the women who her dad was married to a while ago. A little later her sister gets home and starts getting worried because Courtney has not got home yet. So the next day kids were getting out of school to help form a search party to find her along with the cops.

The one thing about this book is I would give it a ten for extremely good work and effort to change names and tell something that had something done to her in her life and changed it a little bit to make an exotic book come a live. Another reasons why is because I really loved her creativity she did to this to make a story seem a tiny bit different and neat at the same time.

My response to this was wow I really love it and want to read it more to possible see if there might be more of these stories written by the terrific writer who wrote this book.

I recommend this book to people who love mysteries and have maybe even felt like they lost a love that they needed in there life at some point. So if you have just got through with reading this then go get this book from the nearest library and read it to see if you will like it to.
