I gave this book 4 stars because I liked it and it was a lot like the other ones. But it didn't really get exciting until the last chapter. The part that really got me hooked was when Niki and her friend almost got kidnapped! It also shows the danger of meeting people that you met on the internet then in person. All in all it was a very good book and so far a great series.

DNF'd at pg 51/chapter 6
This may be due to the book being 20 years old and very dated. Having this as the next book needing to be read was keeping me from reading ANYthing.

The series continues it's exploration of teen issues with a look at the internet and the dangers of chat rooms.

It was good to have Nikki back in her regular Lake Michigan setting, interacting with her family and friends. The new family drama wasn’t completely unexpected and it was good to see some growth from Nikki’s mother. I also appreciated how the pregnancy/adoption plot was portrayed in this one, as Nikki’s feelings and healing feel realistic in their back n forth adolescent swing, as does her burgeoning faith.
Unfortunately, this is one of those early 2000’s Internet = danger! plots that has not aged very well. I was a teenager when this book was published and remember the very real concern about chat rooms, instant messaging strangers, and the importance of not revealing any personal or identifiable information over the Internet. How things have changed! What happens to Nikki and Keesha at the end of this book feels like it is either too tame or too dramatic of an outcome.
As always, another enjoyable episode in the 90s/00s YA Christian fiction world I continue to revisit.
