This book was very scary… I loved it. because it was a really on the edge of your seat type of book. I really enjoyed it. I think that it was one of the best books out of all the Bolton book awards books.
Overall I enjoyed this book. The storyline is very creative and is very gentle and soft. After reading one chapter it left me wanting to read another one! However, I found the ending a let down. There was so much tension and excitement throughout the main body paragraphs but as the end was tied up I was disappointed as the author could have taken advantage of the suspense but the ending was too soft for my liking. But I would defiantly recommend this book!
What a nice book! Nicest book I’ve ever read man
Definitely will recommend to others! Continue your hard work!
I really liked this book as it had a good storyline and left me on the edge of my seat. The suspense that had been built up really encouraged me to read on, as I was waiting to see what happened next. The characters had different charisma and at points even though it was more of a serious novel, it had glimpses of comedy and made me laugh. I was slightly disappointed with the ending as due to the big build up throughout the storyline I was expecting something interesting, and maybe something that we weren’t expecting to happen, so that was a bit of a let down. I would encourage teenagers to read it as it was also an eye opener (even though it was fictional) to how lucky we our in our daily life of being able to leave the house or have a social life as not everyone gets this opportunity. Another aspect I really liked about this book was that at the end of the book how it kind of had a glossary, on what agoraphobia is and gave a clear explanation. I also liked the fact it gave ideas of what to do if you was a young career and websites to visit if you needed help. Overall I would recommend to read this book!!
This book is amazing with a great twist at the end! I suggest this book to anyone!!
