This was a good addition to the Horror Land miniseries. I own this in my personal library and totally advice anyone to read it. Carly Beth is back, and so is the mask. And that is what i like about this book series, iconic characters keep coming back, no matter what.

The author used great word choices that really expressed the emotions, the actions of the character, and the the thoughts. The book uses great characterization that tells us about the characters. And every time a character is introduced the character’s appearance is described, I find this really helpful because it gives us an image of what the looks like. This book also uses the first person point of view, the book is only told from the perspective of the main character. My recommendations I would recommend this book to anyone who can get it. This book is full of great characterization, plots, and word choice. The great word choice makes you feel like you are actually in the book at that time. I think that young readers would enjoy this because this book is full of imagination and all those young readers have a great imagination. And the reading level of this book will also be perfect for young readers like teens or older children.
