Downloaded for nostalgia and it didn’t disappoint. Many a summer spent on the swing chair in the back garden reading point horror and the forbidden game trilogy was my favourite. Always thought it would make a great movie :)

Took me back to being a teenager

This is the first book in a trilogy by L. J. Smith, author of the vampire diaries. This is a departure from the vampire world that made its author famous. A group of friends are trapped in a haunted house where they must face their worst nightmares. To win is to escape, to lose is to die, and in a world full of darkness and uncertainty, they have only one another to rely on. The chilling atmosphere kicks in right from the start and the fear factor only increases as the book continues. With vivid descriptions and a nail biting pace, this book is an absolute must for all L. J. Smith fans and a great book to introduce new readers to her work.

Nailbiting
