Example sentence: "Even as creepy as she seemed these days, Jody would not have defecated in a book." AHAHAHAA! So, at least I got a laugh out of it. ( ) Who would have thought that a high school turning into a charter school would be so nightmarish?! At the beginning of the school year the teachers and students are told that their school is being turned into a charter school. Strange things start happening first with the ones who opposed the charter school idea and then with the school and students. Murder, gore, batshit craziness all wrapped into one. This is not for the faint of heart. I had a hard time putting this one down. Tyler High School has become a Charter School. Things really begin to change - and not necessarily for the good. Actually none of the changes are good. All through this book you just keep thinking"they can't do that". Oh but they can and they did. Some of the scenes are really "over the top" but overall it was a book that was really hard to put down. Another classic Bentley Little "suburban horror" novel. Much like The Store and The Association, The Academy takes an iconic part of America and slowly warps it into a nightmare scenario. If you like horror and haven't read anything by Bentley Little, do yourself a big favor and correct that oversight. If you prefer short-form horror, try his book of short stories - called, obviously, The Collection. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

HTML:??Master of the macabre? Bentley Little offers a new lesson in fear with this terrifying horror novel. With a promise of more freedom and a chance to get out from under the thumb of a reactionary school board, the teachers of Tyler High have voted to become a charter school. Instructors and parents alike are thrilled with the prospect of independence. And yet.... The formerly laid-back principal has become unusually strict. And with her toadying secretary, she seems to be running the show. That isn??t all. The janitors no longer work nights because of what they hear. The students are frightened by what they see. And things are happening on school grounds that defy rational explanation. But there is an explanation. It??s just not anything that anyone can begin to believe??or h Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
