Customer Reviews

This was a very good book !

I am starting to read ALL of the Nightmare Hall books and so far this is the best book that I've read. In this book a girl named Johanna is apart of a group called "The Beautiful People" one night when "The beautiful people" go to a party a tragity happens and Johanna falls through a glass door and scars her face up. When she goes to school everyone stares at her because of her scars, but one person thinks that Johanna is a litle too ugly to live. First someone starts doing weird things to her: someone covers all of her mirrors with a black velet cloth, someone sends her a hat that has a black face veil on it that covers her face,then someone sends her a make up kit to apply to her face to cover her scars. Then one day Johanna is walking through the woods and all of a sudden someone starts running behind her, attacks her with a trash bag and covers her face up and tells her " You should have listened to my warnings when I told you to cover your ugly face up!" This book is 5 stars because it is soooooooooo good!!!

Diane Hoh is tops!

After a horrible accident Johanna is severly scarred but now she is also scared-someone is after Johanna. Someone twisted who want's the once beauty silenced-forever.I love how Diane Hoh's book aren't just about blood and guts but have a psychological and sophisticated slant to them. Diane Hoh is waaay above many young adult writers in my book!

A truly scary book

You can't put it down. This book had you reading from start to finish. It's very scary and in some places a little sick in the murder plot ideas. I would reccommend it to anybody who likes horror stories 12+. It may scare young people though.

Pretty Pleasing

This has to be the best Nightmare Hall book I've ever read. I loved Hoh's idea for the plot, ie. Girl too ugly - to live. The twists and turns will keep you reading until the last page.
