This review is from: Hide and Seek (Paperback)

THE BOOK STARTS OFF WITH THE MAIN CHARACTER LISSA HIDING FROM SOMEONE WHO IS AFTER HER HUNTING HER DOWN. OVERALL IT WAS A GOOD BOOK, PREDICTABLE BUT DEFINITELY A PAGE TURNER, IT WAS INTERESTING REMINISCING WITH LISSA EVERYTHING SHE EXPERIENCED IN HER CHILDHOOD WITH HER FATHER'S EXPLOSIVE MOODS. I RECOMMEND TO ALL

BY THE WAY ALL THE OTHER REVIEWS ARE NOT THE ONES THAT SHOULD GO WITH THIS BOOK!! THIS BOOK HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH WAR. ITS A POINT HORROR BOOK!!

5.0 out of 5 stars A heart racing thriller, July 17, 2003

This review is from: Hide and Seek (Paperback)

I recommend this book to anyone who loves thriller novels. I also recommend this book for ages 10 and older, because this book has very scary parts. This book is a bit frightening and interesting. It is also about friendship. I liked this book because for example, Lissa confides in Brian, the boy in Lissa's English class. Brian states, "I'll never do anything to let you down," he said. "Day after day, I'll be honest with you, and I'll never intentionally hurt you. After about seven thousand and eight days of this, you'll begin to realize that this is something you can count on - that I'm someone you can count on." Now Lissa can tell Brian about her fathers violent ways. I also like this book because it makes it interesting when Lissa talks about her past with her friends. She says, "No, I won't say I'm going to die, I have to think about the happy times in my life. I can't think about dying. Not now, not yet, not ever." When she said this it just made me want to read more about what was happening to her, and who was trying to kill her.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not Even Hiding Will Help You Survive, August 23, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Hide and Seek (Paperback)

This book is incredibily slow and nothing much happens. There are about four people in the book - Lissa, Mother, Father & Josh. It is totally obivious from the start who is trying to kill Lissa, and even she knows. The relationship between Lissa & Josh and Mother & Father are totally unrealistic. This book is best kept at the back of the book shelves !!!
