Teacher's Pet

Richie tankersley cusick is a great author cant wait to read!

I borrowed this book from my high school library this year and I must say that even though I'm more used to books from Tami Hoag and Nora Roberts now, I enjoyed this book tremendously just as I did with soem of her other great books. Silent Stalker, Fatal Secrets, and the Mall are still among my favorites of all time ^_^This book was written well because of the humor of Denzel's character and I liked most of the characters. But the thing that sort of got be confused at the end was the chaos that had occured when everything was being unraveled. As with many of Cusick's novels, I rushed through it a bit, trying to get it finished in a few hours because I usually love all of her novels. Well, this one was a bit weird and chaotic in the end because of my impatience ^_^;; But despite the fact that I'm a bit impatient, I do believe that this book is among one of her bests.I would recommend this book along with Silent Stalker, the Mall, Fatal Secret, and Vampire as great books ^_^ And other books by this author are also quite good, like Someone at the Door, Help Wanted, the Drifter, the Locker, Starstruck, and Trick or Treat ^_^ Hope my review helped a little in persuading you that CUsick's books are well written and suspensful for teens ^_^

I love this book! I've read it about a million times, and it never gets old. I thought that the best character in the book was Pierce. He was downright frightening, in a way that gives you a nervous stomach. And most young adult thrillers don't affect me like that, but this one was so well written. And the ending was really psycho, but in a good way. It was very orgininal, and very sad and scary at the same time.

Great novel!!!! I've already read it twice. It captures your interest from the start and holds your attention to the very end, which delivers a smart conclusion. The characters are so completely believable, with everyday problems facing them, like real-life people. My fav was Gideon, because of his polite and yet mysterious manner, and good looks. It was hard to figure out what was bothering him in the first part, and as the plot thickened, his character appeared to gather more strength. Kate reminded me of myself in a way, because of her need to know the truth, and her love for writing. That's what most inspired me to read this book (other than the fact that the author's style is excellent) was the fact that it dealt with perception and how you go about writing a particular piece of literature and the obstacles involved.

Cusick has brought us a real chiller here . . . The story of Kate --who loves to write-- going to a writers' conference with her teacher. First, the lecturer, William Drewe goes missing. . . Then someone frightens her in the woods, and follows her. Most ghastly was when Kate met William's sister, Rowena. The only thing is, Rowena is dead . . . Or is she? All throughout the book I was gripped by the superb storyline. I read without stopping once as I needed to know what happened next. The story brings romance, fright, suspence and mystery. It's a great read with an absouletly superb ending. It's a must for the children! <P

My copy of "Teacher's Pet" is held together with sticky tape and is close to falling to pieces. The book revolves around a girl and her teacher attending a writing conference where strange things happen when she becomes to the attention of her class tutor. This book is instantly readable and unlike a lot of books can be read over and over again. The atmosphere and placing of the book is such that when (not if) they make the film version f this book, I want to be in it!
