High School Is Dangerous,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: A Hole in Juan: An Amanda Pepper Mystery (Amanda Pepper Mysteries) (Mass Market Paperback)
Amanda Pepper is coping with her new marriage, the arrival of her husband Mackenzie's nephew, and strange occurrences at Philly Prep where she is an English teacher. Juan Reyes, the new chemistry teacher, is not well liked by students or faculty. He keeps reminding his colleagues that he's only at Philly Prep until his doctoral disertation is complete. The students hate him because his tests are difficult and he doesn't believe in giving a break. Grade point averages are now meaning something to the seniors. Juan confides in Amanda that strange things are happening in his classroom--items go missing then are returned. Then the unthinkable happens, before school there is an explosion in the chemistry lab and Reyes is severely injured. Amanda is sure that it was no accident and begins to investigate but then strange things begin happening in her classroom. Is it due to Halloween approaching or is she the next on the "hit list."The school scenes are so realistic that you will begin to understand the inner workings of a high school. The characters are realistic and fully developed. This would be a great beach read.

More Psychological Than Thrilling,
By
This review is from: A Hole in Juan: An Amanda Pepper Mystery (Amanda Pepper Mysteries) (Mass Market Paperback)
Well written, but not my style. Scenes that take four or five pages to get through, endless inner dialogues, lots of high school details, I just couldn't really appreciate this book. If you like a lot of characterization and focus on the inner workings of the characters, you may.
