3.0 out of 5 stars An Okay Book....., Nov 23 2002

Ce commentaire est de: The Drifter (Mass Market Paperback)
Carolyn Baxter's father recently died. Soon after, her mother gets word that her aunt died and her house was left to them. Mrs. Baxter is set on transforming the home -- Glanton House -- into an inn. They need a stronger financial income, so they hire a drifter to fix up the house. This adds to Carolyn's wariness about the house. After all the ghost stories, the creepy housekeeper (Nora), and now the new drifter, what is Carolyn going to do? Joss is tall, dark, and handsome and seems to be there when accidents happen -- rescuing people. Then again, could he be creating them?.....

"The Drifter" was a pretty good book. I love Richie Tankersley Cusick, but this story is her weakest one so far. It didn't hold my interest at all, and the ghostly scenery didn't intrigue me. While there were a couple thrilling parts, they weren't very shocking or surprising....Cusick just incorporated too many ghost stories, which I didn't like. Overall, especially if you're planning on reading this book, and this book only, you should read it. But, if you're going to read all of Cusick's books, put this one on the bottom of your list!......

Also recommended:
a.) "Secret Santa" by D. E. Athkins
b.) "The Train" by Diane Hoh
c.) "Slay Bells" by Jo Gibson
d.) "Starstruck" by Richie Tankersley Cusick
e.) "Vampire" by Richie Tankersley Cusick
f.) "Double Date" by Sinclair Smith
g.) All R. L. Stine young adult thrillers
h.) All books by Joan Lowery Nixon

5.0 out of 5 stars Richie is the Best!, Nov 4 2001

Ce commentaire est de: The Drifter (Mass Market Paperback)
this was the first book i ever read by RTC and i loved it! You could practically fall in love with the characters. Ever since I read the Drifter i've been collecting all her books and now i have all of them except for El Dia de Los Incents. I really need to get my hands on the new one wich will be comming out soon"the house next door" All RTC's books are great i recommend all of them but especially The Drifter, Summer of Secrets, Trick or Treat, Someone at the Door, and The Lifeguard.

The drifter was a pretty good book, but Richie Cusick has written other books that are so much better! I reccomend Someone at the Door or Silent Stalker!

5.0 out of 5 stars Wicked good book
I really love Ms. Cusick's writing, and this book is incredible. The characters are all so real, it's like you're actually inside the story. I would recommend it to anyone.
