A thriller about eight year old Amy Kaslov who is pretty and charming but has been abused and seems helpless. As the novel develops, so does her terrifying power which enables her to control people,... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I, like many others, read this book when I was about 15 years old. I am now 33 and I still think of this book often. My cousin and best friend, Nicole, passed this book on to me to read. She passed away when we were 19 and this book remains in my life as a reminder of our friendship and kinship. This book grips you from the beginning and refuses to let you go even when you have finished reading it. I truly love this book and am glad to know that it has been a wonderful read for others like me.

I must have read this book back when I was about 12 or 13 also, I am 20 now. I discovered it in my mom's bookshelf. I've read it 3times already and I want to read it again. It's an easy read but it's very compelling with a lot of imagery. The story about this little girl will touch your heart. You will wish that you could jump in the book and save her. Highly Recommended.
This book touched me in a way, a book never did before...

I got this book from some friends of my parents whop where cleaning out their libary, and they gave me some books... I am normaly a fan of thrillers/action books (I'm a 14-years old boy) but I started reading it, I liked it so much that I raced trough it so fast, that it was out the morning of the next day... The rest of the day I had problems concentrating me on things, beacouse the book touched me in a way, only few books did before... I really recomend it to everyone, it's a really nice book, only the end is too sad for me :-( SO GO GET IT!
I din't read this whole book, but what I did read was great.

I first read this book when I was 15 years old, I'm now 24 and have read it a couple hundred times. The amazing part is I still find it captivating. The story is about a girl named Amy Kaslov who's abusive and alcoholic Father kills her Mother in front of her. Somewhere in Amy is the power to make people do things against their will. She struggles with the knowledge of this and many other starteling discoveries. Don't take my word for it though, get the book right away, I assure you the surprise ending alone is worth $6.95 and much more.
