Perfect!.....

Melissa is urged to compete in Westdale High's first homecoming in 25 years by her friends, Izzy and Celeste. At first, Melissa's anxious to start campaigning, however, her spirits are dampened when the news of why Westdale hasn't had a homecoming until now gets around to her. Apparently, homecoming queen Brenda Sheldon had an accident on the night of homecoming. Rumor has it that her ghost is still seen around town, wanting to reclaim her crown. After a brief scare, Melissa overlooks the talk, until terrible accidents start occurring to the others running for the title; two barely missing Melissa! Who's doing this, and why? The answer is revealed in the exciting conclusion!....."Homecoming Queen" by John Hall was amazing! Mystery and suspense seems to wrap you up in an exciting blanket, nonstop! It was one of the few books that actually gave me chills. It is nicely descriptive, with a killer-surprise ending! The only flaw for me personally, was that I had previously read a book, "My Bloody Valentine," that was similar to this book, which took a little originality out of it for me! If you haven't read that book, though, you should be fine! Enjoy!Also recommended:a.) "Someone at the Door" by Richie Tankersley Cusickb.) "Starstruck" by Richie Tankersley Cusickc.) "April Fools" by Richie Tankersley Cusickd.) "The Train" by Diane Hohe.) "The Invitation" by Diane Hohf.) "Slay Bells" by Jo Gibsong.) "My Bloody Valentine" by Jo Gibsonh.)

Homecoming Queen is my favourite book.

Home coming Queen is about a girl called Mellisa, who moves to a new school called Westdale. She gets nominated to run for Home coming Queen, until she finds out about Brenda Sheldon. Thats when Mellisa starts getting weird phone calls and strange stuff begins to happen to her, and one by one the nominees who are also running for home coming queen, have very fatal accidents. I think that Home coming Queen is a really excellent book and it's never boring. It is very well discripted and thet helps you to imagine the events taking place. The book is written by John Hall. I would give it 10/10 because it's the best book I've ever read.

THE BOOK WAS COOL AND I LOVED ALL OF THE SCENES

WELL IT IS ABOUT THIS GIRL NAMED MELLISA BRADY IS IN THE TWELTH GRADE AND SHE IS RUNNING FOR HOMECOMING QUEEN BUT WHEN SHE RUNS FOR THE QUEEN STRANGE THINGS START TO HAPPEN TO HER FRIENDS AND HER AND SHE DOSENT KNOW WHY IT IS HAPPENING

Scream Queen

John Hall wowed me with this terrifying tale of jealousy, greed & murder. Melissa would die to be home coming queen, and death may be her price. The last time there was a home coming queen, she was found dead, now, it seem's history is repeating itself. With smart, sassy suspects & victims, Homecoming Queen will keep you guessing up until the last few pages. By far the best horror/thriller book ever written. P.S - If this should be made into a film, I strongly suggest Sarah Michelle Geller ( Buffy, Scream 2, I know What you Did Last Summer ) for the part of Melissa & Alicia Silverstone ( Clueless, The Crush ) for the part of Celeste.
