It was an okay read. I really enjoyed the suspenseful feeling as the story progressed though.
However, overall it was just okay.

I just got this in a "fill a bag for $5" deal at a charity store, so I wasn't expecting the most, but I definitely expected more. This was honestly disappointing. I breezed right through it and yeah, I've been reading more this month, but not THAT much more. It was originally from a school library and the inside said year 8, but this seems low-level even for year 8. I wish I had better things to say but I just did not like this book.
Not that I hated it, it was just nothing really.

I would give this book 0 out of 5 stars if I could, that is how bad this book is. This book is the worst book I have even read. The book has no point and it's pretty much about a girl who fall off a cliff and ***SPOILER ALERT ***she nearly died but she lives.

There is no character development or any interesting about the book. Some of the characters in this book are super creep and I don't understand what is going through the author's mind when she is writing it because the creepy characters don't fit well in the story and are confusing why they are put there in the first place.

The writing is very simple and boring and I don't understand how the book got published because it is that awful. The writing seems like it is aimed at eight year olds, but most of the characters are teenagers. This book confuses me a lot because there are so many characters, ideas, themes and writing styles that don't fit the book, and I wonder what the author was thinking.

Never read this book because there is no point, it is a waste if time.

i had to read this book fro year 8 English (aka last term) even though i do English 3 years a head of me, as a class we read this together. the book to me was dull, and a little boring, but that's compared to what i usually read. i definitely see the purpose of studying this book in schools, though i love doing 4 essays about the same boring book ( sarcasm). i don't think i would ever read it again though, not for pleasure at least. i don't know if the author was aiming for an educational book when she wrote this, but it definitely has become that, just something your forced to read. the characters though are interesting, little secrets hidden here and there, finding out things you wouldnt think, and metaphors, this book certainly likes them, espically weather maetaphors
