Well other then the fact Leah is the original Parsel-tongue (figures it's a Fier/Fear right?) this was surprising. having not read this years ago it was all new to me. Stine does seem obsessed with weird sibling dynamics (in a set of 3 at least one is crazy, one mistakes the innocent sibling as the crazy one and one will either die or almost die. Every time.).
Okay, so why was I so obsessed with this series in middle school again? Anyway, this book details one horrible thing happening after another, and it seems that the protagonist's sister is at fault. As it turns out in a surprising twist, this isn't the case. That doesn't make anything better however- the book is a series of deaths.
