    <body><![CDATA[I actually found this book disappointing.<br/><br/>The basic plotline is simple: five parents decide to have their kids killed for reasons that are honestly pretty skimpy.  The parents are pretty cold and I suppose that's part of why it's a horror, but it still comes off as bizarre more than anyth...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/2106720">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Loved it as much at 30 as I did at 13.  The premise is shocking, yet believable.  Despite the seemingly dark subject matter, this book is both funny and tender without a hint of schmaltz.  Growing up, I read and loved all of Julian F. Thompson's books; but this one was my favorite.  (Wow, I must hav...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/1858317">more...</a>]]></body>

I did enjoy reading it, but partly because it was so absurdly, ostentatiously, hilariously bad.<br/><br/>Here is the premise:  Somewhere in Vermont is a little private school for students of the gifted-yet-troubled variety.

It is a book that should be read when you are young, still seeing the world as a place where adults often seem like they are out to get you, and escape to a place without them sounds like heaven in a basket with a bow on top. :) I loved this...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/34268100">more...</a>]]></body>
