Such Nice People by Sandra Scoppettone

4.0

This is one of those books that's for people who like books like The Girl Next Door or Let's Go Play at the Adams', because whoa nelly, is it dark. The title comes from those soundbites you hear on the news after one of those quiet neighbors does something terrible. Here, though, it's not just one person who is "such nice people'; it's everyone.

It's not quite horror, but it's not quite a thriller, either. In fact, it's more a character-driven novel than anything else, until you come into the final stretch of the book. There's nothing supernatural here, but there are scenes that will stay with you long after you finish it.
