Blake has to chase his brother, Quinn, into a bizarre phantom carnival that traps its customers forever. Once inside, he has to survive seven deadly rides by dawn, each of which represents a deep, personal fear. My read time was 3 hours and 19 minutes, so a fairly simple read. I thought Blakes character progression was pretty decent, not really becoming magically unafraid of everything as soon as the conflict began like some other books. His fear coated almost every word in this book and there were quite a few times I became afraid that he would lose himself in the rides like everyone else did. Ultimately, it's just another great story from Mr. Shusterman!

I borrowed this book from school and haven't returned it because its just too good to give back. I say it has a good combination of exitment, romance and imagination! I would love to see this in a movie theater!!

Great book, I read it the first time when I was 10, I read many more times after that. I couldnt get enough of it for years. Taught deep mental lessons of perseverance that everyone srrugglung through adolescence should know. On top of that one of the most thrilling books I can recall,once I picked up I couldnt put it down until I was done. I did that every singke time I read it.
