Raven's Point

Rating:
Summary: Silly with a badly developed plot and too much gore.
Review: I found this book rather pointless. The plot was poorly developed, with not enough background given for the development of the "evil" that was out to get everyone. The "special powers" the main characters had were incredibly silly, and confusing as well! Not to mention, this book had too much gore that did NOTHING to further the plot. What happened to Melinda Metz? Roswell High and Fingerprints were so good... among my favorite series ever... and now THIS!

Summary: Blunt, but okay
Review: Raven's Point was a bit of a pointless book- but if you're into the gruesome/horror/confusing types of stories, I guess it was okay (and only okay). It's basically about a small island that is slowly being destroyed by an ancient (confusing and unexplained) evil that has come back after centuries. Four teenagers must try to do what their past lives did not suceed at: destroy the evil forever with their (odd, confusing, unexplained) powers before it destroys their town (again). Quite gory, gruesome, and chilling for a thunderstormy night read- but there is a bit of a plot lack so I won't suggest looking forward to any big twists or anything you haven't predicted.

Summary: Eeew.
Review: This book was so disgusting. I don't know how I finished reading it. It's about teenagers on an island. They have to fight an evil that lingers there from centuries before. Not only was this book unnecessarily violent and gruesome and gory but the plot was ridiculous. The "evil" was never explained, where it came from, why it's evil, etc etc etc. Also the teenagers' powers were extremely silly and the conclusion was ridiculous and unsatisfying. I can't recommend this book to anyone!
