**I was sent an ARC of this from the publisher for review these thoughts are not influenced by this**

I enjoyed the video game /A.R. aspect that was brought into the game. I felt the characters were developed well I knew who each was I can't say that I personally connected to any of them, I will say that when I recall my high school experience I can picture each type of these characters in my high school that would fit into their descriptions. I enjoyed the religious aspect that was brought into the book and learning different parts of world religions and how they tied it into the game. The world building inside the game was great, when returing to the real world most of it took place in a high school so there wasn't much needed in describing the world. If you like mystery/thrillers and teens questioning their morals I would recommend checking it out for sure

“Prom is like the Olympics of high school; You wait four years, only like three people have a good time, and everyone else leaves with shattered hopes and dreams.” Nova Prescott had it all, class president, popularity and a bright future. What more can a teenage high school girl ask for? Well, how about a perfect prom for starters?

Prom stars Aimee Teergarden (Friday Night Lights) as Nova Prescott and Thomas McDonald (soon to portray young Barnabas Collins in Dark Shadows) as Jesse Richter. Nova is obsessed with planning the perfect prom as a final farewell to high school and a big jump to college. Her dreams are shattered after a fire has ruined all her prom decorations and she is in need of some help to get things back on track. “Walking misdemeanor” Jesse Richter is forced to help Nova fix what was lost and in the end they end up finding love. Prom includes different stories about couples who have problems of their own that all revolve around the most important night of a senior’s life: the prom

Disney’s Prom is another cheesy, lackluster high school film with awkward scenes and awkward actors. This movie is unrealistic and uneventful and may put parents at ease but leave kids wondering why they would pour their heart and soul into one specific yet anti-climactic night that most adults end up forgetting anyways. Although the film lacked humor and good writing, the most promising part is the soundtrack.

The film is too familiar and uses the same old scenarios that have been played out in other films about high school countless times and offers nothing new.

Great high school set horror film with an all star cast. Directed by Robert Rodriguez and written by Kevin Williamson, who did Scream, I know what you did last summer, Vampire diaries to name a few.
  
My favorite book, I'm not even sure how many times I've read it, the first time being in high school. While there is a lot of information out there claiming inaccuracies in the book, as I'm sure there are, it is entertaining and well written.
