This is the 3rd book I have read by this author; the 1st book I read is Suckers which is not only a pretty good horror novel but an excellently written story about friendship; the 2nd is Insylum which is much more than it first appears. All 3 I have enjoyed as once again, Z Rider writes a great story with interesting characters whose stories weave together with ease.

All time favorite book
This is my absolute favorite book and i can't say enough good things about it. I read this as a young child and it has been a yearly read since then. I have no doubt this book shaped who I am in a huge way and I wouldn't be the same person without it. It's often considered a horror novel, and while there is certainly a horror aspect to it, it's really a story about people and friendship.

I Received an ARC copy from netgalley for an open and honest review.
I love love love this book, it really is about friendship, love, adolescence, experimentation and of course possession.
There were some real twists and turns that I did not expect and it was a real page turner of a book.
It was well put together and completely from a Abby's point of view.
I loved how Abby was tested again and again trying to save her friend and the ending was a superb ending to this book.
Loved it :)

This isn't normally a genre that I read but it was Aprils book group choice so I gave it a go (sad stories make me sad!) The friendship that formed between Lizzie and The Buckminster boy was one of faith and finding out about a different way of life. It's hard to think that there was a time when people really choose to treat other people in this way but it was nice to see that a young boy could overlook what society told him he should see.

Just friends focuses on what happens when you have so much self doubt and feel invisible. Josh doesn't really believe in himself and knows he isn't good enough for new girl Jena. When they become friends and she relys on him his situation becomes more screwed up. A should he/shouldn't he starts. Add in an old friendship that takes a backseat and it's a lot to read.
For me the inner monologue was just a tad annoying. I felt the ending was suitable but the way it comes around just doesn't feel complete.
