recommends it for: Christopher Pike fans
I'm just not sure whether I love or hate this. Usually with Pike it's one or the other, but I don't know about this one. There is some intriguing stuff going on with the characters and their relationships to one another but I feel like it never comes together as well as some of his other books and some of it was just too weird. Overall I was a little disappointed.

Grade: B-

OH YES! This is one I definitely remember, and I remembered the "trick" pretty early on while reading it, but it was no less satisfying. Also, Christopher Pike sure does enjoy the "magical black man" character. And for once his main character wasn't a complete idiot AND there weren't awful female friends. Three cheers for girls who don't suck!

A classic Pike novel, a great fucked-up story that I still love, and the first Pike book I ever came across. I can remember pictures in my head from these books much more clearly than anything I learned in college, which is probably the most unfortunate thing I've ever had to type.

Beware of English chicks -- that's the message here. Seriously, though, the book isn't terrible (but it's not that good either), and it could have been better.

I guess I just outgrew Mr Pike. :P

I read Christopher Pike books when I was in jr high. They are quick reads, good mysteries. I decided to read them again and have really enjoyed them again.

I really loved Christopher Pike back in the day. This book, I remember, was my favourite.
