Oh Mr.R you've done it again!

Like the other books in this series I felt this one was written for me.First you've been compared to Stephen King - one of my favorites. Next your books were compared to The Wizard of Oz - another of my favorites. Then you use a dog in your storyline and lo and behold its a German Shepard- of course, my favorite. Now in your latest installment you mention paintball. Yet one more of my favorites. I squealed in delight. I couldn't believe my eyes. Even if it was only mentioned briefly I was still thrilled. BUT THEN, sniff sniff, THEN after reading a few more pages you ripped my heart out. You did the unthinkable. Page after page the tears came. I was so emotionally invested that I wanted just as much revenge as Oz. Even two days after finishing the book I"m still thinking about. That is a great book when you can't stop thinking about it days after you've finished!

I can't wait for the next one ! Not only to find out what happens, of course, but I'm wondering what other "favorite" thing of mine will be in the storyline. Baking? Knitting? The color blue? . . . . . .

I enjoyed every page and did not want the book to end.I usually dont say that I have a favorite author because it feels very limiting but this series has changed my mind. I definitely have a favorite author now and his name is R.W. Ridley !!

This was my least favorite of the series so far but still enjoyable. My favorites were on the back burner again and I just couldnt relate to Scoopface / Archie. Also at some points it just didnt make sense to me, not sure why but it was confusing.

In the beginning I didn't enjoy this book as much as the first due to the sci fi feel from the start. Plus the sacarsm and my favorite characters took more of a back seat in this one. However as I got into it the suspense picked up and it became a real page turner. Also I really felt the message of bullying and how it can harm an individual.That message was also in the first book but it was really spelled out for you here. Can't wait to start the next book!
