Summary: Stacy's review of A Deadly Game of Magic
Review: I think my book A Deadly Game of Magic by Joan Lowery Nixon wasn't that good at all. She had a great plot for her story, but as soon as the characters became emotionally attached to each other it made a big love triangle and the book just fell apart from there. It was an emotional rollercoaster that was hard to understand at first, but once one problem would be solved another one would seem to happen. I think Nixon also didn't use her details as effeciently as she could have. All in all nixon wrote a good book but she could use more details and less of teenaged people trying to get with each other becasue she makes it unrealistic. Nixon's book looked good at first but as I finished this book my expectations of it dropped.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Another thriller by Joan Lowery Nixon!!!!!!!!
Review: Ok, I'll admit it. If you've read the back of this book, you know how lame it sounds. Thats what I thought. But this is one of the best books I have ever read! Page after page is filled with suspense. My heart was pounding throughout the story. This book is definitly worth getting.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: SUSPENSFUL
Review: This book is a Great book to read. The first book that I read of Joan Lowery Nixon and makes me want to read more of her books. This book makes you wonder who the person is. This book is about a group of kids having their car break down and going to this house in the rain. Then, Lisa (the main character) has to use her magician skills in order to catch the person who is trying to get them out of the house. Great book, I recommend it to everybody who loves mystery books!!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Not the greatest book
Review: This book is okay, but not that great. It's interesting, but it kind of just lingers on and on about what's at the end of that hallway. Plus it's confusing. I still don't understand who those two people were at the beginning of the book who let the kids in the house, or what happened to the magicians' wife. But anyway, this is a good book to read, just beware: it gets boring while reading it.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Sean's review of A Deadly Game of Magic
Review: This book is terrible! I told my teacher that we shouldn't have read it, because I don't read mystery books. I also don't like to be held in suspense. I wish there were pictures in this book. It would work better as a comic book. I'd give this book 1 star because it was boring.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A Deadly Game of Magic review
Review: This book was a good read. It was suspenseful and great for people of all ages. Right from the beginning it made you wonder what was going to happen and jumped right into the story. At times it would drag out and get boring but most of the time it was very good. It was well written and gave you good imagery of what was happening.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: SPOOKY!
Review: This book was one of the best books I ever read. It is so good and spooky. I could not put it down. I was reading it for like 3 hrs straight when I got home from school. It was so scary, and I don't know how Joan got the idea for this book. It's really suspenseful and wonderful, and also very very very unique! I could read this book again and again!

I sssooooo reccomend this book. READ IT NOW!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A clever thriller!!!
Review: This great book is not really a mystery. It is more like a heart pounding thriller. Whan 4 friends? Have car trouble in a violent storm they have to go to a huge house to seek refuge. When they get there they meet 2 strange people who say they can stay then leave right after. After that Lisa and the others are caught in a clever web of terror. This book is better to read on dark stormy days. It adds a great thrill!But if you don't read it on a rainy day it still should give you enough chills to keep you up all night!
