5.0 out of 5 stars I love a good mystery, March 2, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Night fall (Paperback)

I liked the book night fall, it was a very well put together book. It's sad in some but happy in others, you should, no you have to read this book and you need to find out what happens.I thought this book was one of the best that I've ever read in my life. the main character Meg is my favorite character in the book. I think I like her so much because she's the one with the mystery I like to read mysterys any way were ever she go's she's alway trying to figure it out but the best part is that she takes you with you.
