THIS BOOK IS ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS I HAVE EVER READ, IT KEPT ME ON THE EDGE OF MY SEAT AND THERE WAS SO MANY CLIFFHANGERS, I CAN'T EVEN COUNT THEM ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I SUGGEST THIS BOOK TO EVERYONE!!! (EVEN PEOPLE WHO DON'T LIKE TO READ)

This paperback contains a copy of Trey Callaway's screenplay for "I Still Know What You Did Last Summer". It contains almost everything we saw in the movie, with emphasis on a nice creepy setting and some very gory death scenes. Some parts of the screenplay (like when Ray and his friend encounter the mannequin in the road) pay a nice tribute to the original, but some of the dialogue (in particular that of the Fisherman, Ben Willis) is written poorly and is oozing with cheese, as is the addition of his son Will Benson into the story. Finally, the ending is a pale imitation of Kevin Williamson's original "I Know What You Did Last Summer". Overall however, a satisfying read, especially for horror buffs.

It was so cool because there was alot of action through the book. It always held my thought through the hole entire book so I totally hope you read it.

My name is Tucker and this book is very scary and a very good book. I couldn't put it down once I started reading it was one of the best books I have ever read! Please buy this book and you'll love it I promise it will make you love scary books even if you don't like them. If you buy this book you won't be sorry you will absolutley love this book I promise.

I like Lois Duncan's style of writing....he puts suspense, horror and trills all together in one short reasding book....the moves is good too!!!!

I was drawn to this sequel as soon as I heard about it. How can there be a sequel, I thought. Julie and Ray had decided to confess at the end of the first book. So when I saw this book, I picked it up and read it. It was somewhat exciting, but there was no point to the violence. The person had vengeance against Julie and Ray because they were the parties involved in the hit-and-run. So what was the killer doing slashing all these other people: Ray's coworker, Julie's new friend (Brandi and her on-screen boyfriend), and six other people? I'm surprised Lois Duncan had a hand in this sequel. Her plots have always made sense, and she has always had a reason for whatever happens in her stories.

I had seen the movie and found the screenplay at a bookstore. I decided to pick it up, and it really wasn't that interesting becuase A) I knew was was going to happen B) There was no suspense at all and C) Screenplays are basic. The actors do the rest. If it was novelized, then perhaps it would be better. Plus, it didn't really follow the movie in the first place. I think if they took another month or so, they could have novelized this, and with Lois Duncan working with this, I know it would have been great.

It was a pretty good book, maybe I'll like it better when I see the movie. I think this one was a little more exciting, more gory death scenes, still, it's missing something... I would like it better if it was an actual book, not just a screenplay.

It really wasnt that great at all. I think I could see better writting from a kid in the 1st grade. Sorry but this is my opinion.I really liked that Dumbo book more than this because this book really made me vomit.Not because it was a nasty book , but because the book was badly written. Im ashamed of u Trey Callaway.

Like a script it was written excactly like the movie. If you loved the movie you love the book. If you haven't seen the movie that's okay you can read the book before the movie. I loved it. I thought that it was written with great detail and cleverness.
