SRP 2013 REVIEW: Excellent coming of age book. This book rekindled my admiration for S. King. It doesn't have to be scary to be entertaining.

SRP 2013 REVIEW: I enjoyed the book. It was typical of the mystery genre of paperback novels back in the day. King has a knack for spinning a yarn that was endearing yet subtly suspenseful.
