Look out for the original series—starring Peyton List, Brent Rivera, Liana Liberato, Ajiona Alexus, and Dylan Sprayberry—now streaming on Hulu!

Riverdale meets Final Destination in this fast-paced and deliciously creepy novel about an innocent game that turns deadly at a high school sleepover.

It was supposed to be a game…

Junior year is shaping up to be the best of McKenna Brady’s life. After a transformative summer, McKenna is welcomed into the elite group of popular girls at Weeping Willow High, led by the gorgeous Olivia Richmond. For the first time in a long time, things are looking up.

But everything changes the night of Olivia’s Sweet Sixteen sleepover. Violet, the mysterious new girl in town, suggests the girls play a game during which Violet makes up elaborate, creepily specific stories about the violent ways the friends will die. Though it unsettles McKenna, it all seems harmless at the time.

Until a week later, when Olivia dies…exactly as Violet predicted.

As Violet rises to popularity and steps into the life Olivia left unfinished, McKenna becomes convinced Olivia’s death wasn’t just a coincidence, especially when a ghost haunting her bedroom keeps leaving clues that point to Violet. With the help of her cute neighbor, Trey, McKenna pledges to get to the bottom of Violet’s secrets and true intentions before it’s too late. Because it’s only a matter of time before more lives are lost.

WOW 😮 AMAZING READ!

WOW 😮 AMAZING READ!
THIS BOOK WAS AMAZING! I don’t usually like horror but this book made me fall in love with the genre. I loved the story and the characters. The ending was super good but to be honest, the whole book was good. I loved the idea of spirits and Ouija Board plus a character who can see someone’s story of how they will die. The book played a movie in my mind and I didn’t have any problems of being bored throughout the story. McKenna (the main character) was strong and brave. She knew something was going on. I would say more but I don’t want to spoil. It was also nice to know that her friends and boyfriend believed in her. Usually in books, the other character think they are crazy and they are left alone to deal with it. I feel like there is more going on to Violet (antagonist) and I guess we will see what happens to her in the 2nd book. I totally recommend this book!

Ok this is my 2nd time reading this and I did give a 4 star last time but I change to 5 star this round because it's just creepy and good. Does it have the high school popular click of every high school ever why yes it does but when you add a new kid to your group and a kids game that goes wrong well you have yourself a night time read that sends chills down your arms and back add a angry friends ghost to that mix then your just waiting for goodness to happen. I love how the story did not end all wrapped in a cute bow and I just found out about book 2 which just arrived ready to be devoured. There is going to be a book 3 coming in September I'm so excited to get as well. I'm hoping for 2nd book to be just as good or better but you have a girl who said voices tell her what to do and picks certain people to target so is it revenge of a grandmother from long ago or is it much more then what it seems to be popular and have everything.. we will find out soon...Recommend if you like Ghost/friendships/love/Revenge plots..Ages 16yrs and up does have light swearing but overall clean and creepy read...Loved again Gina Clabo

This is by far one of the best books I've had the pleasure of reading. It kept me hooked right up to the very last word, and left me wanting more. I'm now reading the sequel as it being updated. It is just as great. I, sincerely, hope that she never stops writing. She has a gift that few have. The ability to keep you hanging on the edge of your seat waiting for more. Keep up the great writing. I will definitely be purchasing any and all books you write. You have a great talent.

I had no idea about this book until I saw a trailer on YouTube for the Hulu show.
If you've seen the show before reading like I did, as usual, the show and book have similarities, but the book is different. I did like both the show and book. Although never fails to get a bit annoyed when a show or movie strays from the book.
Anyhow, getting a bit off topic as this is a review of the book, not the show.
This is somewhat like a Mean Girls with a paranormal twist. I enjoyed the plot and the characters, although I kind of wished I could of gotten a deeper feel for them as when events did happen, I didn't feel as sympathetic or connected as I wanted to feel. Maybe that was just me in the moment.
I enjoyed the twists and the uniqueness of this story as it follows differently from other paranormal books I've read. I also enjoyed the writing style.
I was a bit annoyed about how it ended as it left things open, but from what I've read, there's another book continuing the story. I'll definitely check that out.
All in all, I enjoyed this book and looked forward the the next one.

Light As a Feather by Zoe Aarsen published by Simon & Schuster Teen.
A group of junior girls attend a birthday party and things turn strange when the new girl describes the birthday girl’s death. They take turns, each listening to their own deaths. All of them except McKenna. Violet said that she can only sense fire but nothing else, when it comes to McKenna. McKenna’s sister, Jennie, died in their house fire years earlier. Horrible things start happening and the friends are freaking out. They decide they will do whatever it takes to stop Violet. Spooky and interesting, this story is a perfect young adult Halloween read, 5 stars!

I liked the concept of the plot. I just wish it went somewhere. Questions were not answered at all. It was a race to stop what?? And all of that for that ending??? I understand it may very well be a series, but when nothing is answered, or revealed, it doesn't leave me wanting more because I felt I read all that for nothing. I was so excited because I thought this would be a great book to recommend to teens and especially reluctant readers, but I think not. I love stuff like this and I wanted to throw this book across the room in the end (okay I did).

I started watching the tv series at the same time I started reading the book. And let’s just say neither are disappointing!! The tv series and the book are different in many way. But I still loved the characters. I enjoyed this book and I can’t wait to finish season 1 of the tv series and start on book two. 😊

4.0 out of 5 stars A great teen / YA read.
Reviewed in Canada on May 27, 2020

As soon as I saw this book, I immediately thought of The Craft movie and knew I had to read it. I thought it was a fun read that I would have absolutely loved as a tewn.
I liked how the romance aspect between McKenna and her neighbor manages to be cute and noticeable without outshining the overall plot of the book. The story itself was fast paced with quite a bit of suspense, loss and even a police chase mixed in to keep things exciting. It was, however, a bit more paranormal based than I expected with no actual witchcraft really involved. But it was still a well written book that I would definitely recommend!

Un urban fantasy particolare, con tematiche originali che mi ha tenuto incollata alle pagine finché non l'ho finito. Coinvolgente, adrenalinico, intrigante...
La storia d'amore non mi ha fatto impazzire: avrei voluto che fosse approfondita un po' meglio. Spero che nei porssimi volumi anche questo aspetto sarà valorizzato di più. Per chi volesse approcciarsi a questo libro ma è in dubbio per via della lingua, dico che l'inglese non è difficilissimo, ma occorre avere una buona preparazione di base per capire certi passaggi un po' ostici. Consigliato!

I saw a trailer for the TV series and it looked interesting so when i found out it was based on a book i had to read it. This feels like a book i would have loved and devoured as a teen, it feels very reminiscent to what I used to read then. Maybe that is why i didn't enjoy it that much, as those are not the kind of books i tend to gravitate towards anymore. And to be honest the story felt kind of juvenile and almost unfinished, like an early draft. At points it felt like the story dragged and at others rushed. That said i enjoyed it for what it was; a fun, quick read with an interesting idea.
