Reviews for Chill

[dmcastillo_1 · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

This book is a quick read that grabs readers with the first line. Some of the events are predictable but the story flows from beginning to end. I liked the sarcasm with which Sean tells the story, but I was a little disappointed with the character development. Chill was obviously "good" and Mr. Sfinkter was obviously "bad." This book would be good for students struggling with frienship issues.
