Really good writing! A quick reading but worth it! Different from the film doesn't mean a bad thing.

I never knew this book existed until I saw the movie, so I quickly wanted to find the book. I did, and somewhat disappointed. The movie was much better, the read was actually a little boring until the last chapter. It is a must read if you enjoyed the movie, but don't expect the same excitement.

The supposedly scary parts of the book aren't even scary. And the plot is incredibly slow. It is rare that a movie is better than the book, but I thought the movie version was 10x better than this book.

The book is very short, and predictable. Just as the story is really starting to pick up, it ends. The actual writing is good, making for a creepy and interesting story, but it's much too short, making it very easy to guess the ending. Not worth $9.99, wait till it goes on sale.

I will begin reading this delicious horror comedy…. I really love the movie, I hope it was available in iTunes very soon!!!!!!

This book was very interesting. Its definately a pageturner!

I purchased this book on the recommendation of a friend. I also wanted to read the book before I saw the movie. As far as horror/ghost stories go, this is very weak. I'm honestly surprised it has stood the test of time. It's more of a short story really...it just lacks substance. I regret making the purchase and would not recommend this book to anyone, especially at this price.

I saw the theater production when I was in London in 2007, and so I was pretty caught off guard by how creeped out I was by the last few chapters, despite the fact I already knew the plot! This was a fun, quick, creepy read. I definitely recommend it!

Blends elements of horror and tragedy into a thrilling tale. This novel continues to stand the test of time.

I read this book in 2 days. Fairly short read; the suspense, and the descriptive words kept me turning the page. I was so enveloped that at one point I felt my own heart racing. A "modern day" tragedy- I recommend this book!
