I loved this book and read it over and over again. I love the style that it was written in and I hope that more are written like this.

Not good, not bad. Wouldn’t read it again. Deals with some good issues, but not my style. It does have a pretty good story line and some good backstories but there’s not really an explanation for the characters. I also found it hard to get into because of the format. Another thing was I didn’t like how the kids didn’t tell an adult or report “Watcher55” to the authorities. It could be better, but I do understand those types of books can be hard to write and I appreciate the authors work. :)

It was a quick read and held my interest. It made some good points. The slang seemed over the top and became a distraction to the story line for me. It sounded like adults (the authors) trying to sound like teens.

This book is about a predator who talks to kids in a chat room. He is so sneaky that the people don't see his evil ways. They don't stop him.

The book is a one-time read because the kids are sarcastic, they don't go to their parents when they should, and the content is hard core.

Didn’t hate it. Didn’t love it.

Dislikes:
messaging style
slang
the fact that none of the kids told any adult or reported the stranger
Ghost’s identity was obvious for the first appearance
