Reaction:
Weird, but very interesting. I wouldn't say it's my favorite Robert Cormier book so far, but I wouldn't say that it's without merit. I liked the psychological mystery involved, but I thought that the ending was a little too confusing. I wouldn't recommend this book for teens younger than high school because it's requires a little bit more maturity to deal with the content.
Cautionary Note: Violence, some language. Death.

I read this book! I don't remember how I found it but I read it in high school. It was weird! But overall, I liked it.
