Prom Date

Sian Wadey

After getting stuck in a book slump, I needed something that I knew I would love. I've read Prom Date several times and I love it. It takes me back to my teenage days, when everything was about boys and prom, and we all knew girls like 'the pops'.
I must admit, I wasn't expecting the book to be as good as it was. I was expecting to be disappointed. But it was brilliant, I loved the characters, the tension was there and kept up throughout the whole book. There were plenty of red herrings and several times I thought I'd worked it out, only be foiled again (I couldn't remember who the murderer was). Don't get me wrong, it is not going to be critically acclaimed. But it's a five stars from me as it has that personal connection.
