A Horror-fying tale

Citation:

Stine, R. L. Dangerous Girls. New York: Avon Books, 2003.

Annotation:

Twin sisters are trying to escape the reality that their Mom killed herself a year ago, by spending the summer at camp. They escape their reality only to find a world of darkness and hunger they do not want to be a part of. Can they make it out alive, or will they continue to live their lives as Dangerous Girls?

Review:

Horror is not my genre, but since it is so popular these days, I wanted to give it a try. This book is a quick, entertaining read. The story is fast paced and the characters are well developed. For a veteran horror reader, the plot may be a little light on the terror factor. I recommend this book for anyone easing into the horror genre that isn’t looking to be too scared to fall asleep alone at night.
