A Great Read!

As a clinical psychologist for over 31 years, I could easily relate to Monica's suffering. Driven to desperation by her obsessive-compulsive disorder. she invents a game she calls "Multiple Choice" which she hopes will free her from her obsessive thinking and behavior, but the game itself becomes an obsession and only ends up complicating her life even more.

"MULTIPLE CHOICE" RULZ!!

"Multiple Choice" is a terrific book! Interesting! Energenic! Enjoyable! Exciting!!! One of the best books I have ever read!! Recommended to any nine through fifteen-year old who enjoys anagrams!! Summary: Monica Devon obsesses with everything about her life. In an attempt to stop obsessing, she creates Multiple Choice, where the letters decide her fate. When she offends her friend Lynn Kelly and almost kills someone, she knows she has gone to far....

Great Book

A really inspirational story for anybody who has this compulsive disorder. It deals with real issues, and gave solutions to how you could deal with them. The characters were good, and it gave a brief description of each, and was written well. I look forward to reading more books by this author.

:)

The book "Multiple Choice" researches a disorder that I'm sure many teens and adults alike suffer from. Not only is the reader able to understand Monica's emotions, but they are also able to get into the mind of someone who suffers from this. The author has successfully added humor to this book as well as interesting anagrams and a few oriddle type things. Personally, I enjoyed reading this book, and I reccomend it to everyone!

THIS BOOK CAPTURES THE FEELING OF O.C.D.

As a 14-year old with Obsessive Complusive Diorder, this book reminded my that I'm not alone. It captures the emotions of O.C.D. and if you don't have the disorder, I still recommend it to help you understand. You may also like "Kissing Doorknobs"
