About Me

I'm the school librarian at G.S. Lakie Middle School. As you can see - me, reading and comfy chairs go way back. I still enjoy Asterix and many other graphic novels. My main reason for blogging is for reviewing books for the students and anyone else that might be interested in YA literature.

School of Fear


School of Fear by Gitty Daneshvari

Everyone's afraid of something...
Madeleine Masterson is deathly afraid of bugs, epecially spiders.
Theodore Bartholomew is petrified of dying.
Lulu Punchalower is scared of confined spaces.
Garrison Feldman is terrified of deep water.

Which is why this may be the scariest summer of their lives. Worse than detention or summer school. Even worse than the orthodontist. The foursome must face their phobias at the exclusive and elusive School of Fear. The school is unusual, to say the least. But "terrifying" would be a more accurate description.
The curriculum is simple: Conquer your fears in six weeks or find out just how frightening failing can be.

Well, would you be willing to face your fears?
Here's the book trailer.
