I loved it!!! Except one thing, God never makes mistakes..
I really loved this book. It makes you kind of wonder what if there really were angels coming down to earth to help you in some sort of way? I believe it. This book has characters just like any teenager in real life! It's about three best friends who died in a bad way. They all wake up in a strange place called Teen Heaven. This place was for teens who really didn't learn everything fully and had to go to Teen Heaven schools just like real life. The Big Guy gave them assignments they had to work on in order to recieve Angel points. It sort of teaches a lesson also in each conflict happening. This book was my first book I read and I loved it. I just wish I read part 1 first. I didn't know it was going to continue! But you reader should really read it! It was great!! I would have gave it five stars, but in one part of the book JD(a helper of the Big Guy) said I guess God does make mistakes. That part isn't true. God never makes any mistakes. Everything was meant to be. But it was real good.

Story line well visualized
This was the first book that I read in the Teen Angels series. I thought it was well written as well as well researched. I was surprised to see that this book dealt with real life issues (like peer pressure, having sex, drinking and smoking, as well as judging others on their appearance)todays teens deal with everyday. I want to thank the authors for showing todays teens that there are many ways to get out of uncomfortable situations. I would also like to congradulate them for writing about things that really matter.

This book was wonderful
This book was phenomenal. I really enjoyed it. I felt as if I was in the character's heart,mind. Or as if I was the character myself!

Two series end not with a bang, but a whimper
Cherie Bennett is known for her spicy plot lines and shocking story twists. However, she chooses to end two popular series - *Trash* and *Pageant* - in a happily-ever-after joint novel.

The loser-in-love of *Trash* finds his one-and-only; the vicious diva of the *Pageant* circuit finds her unrealistic, deviant plans collapsing all around; the other random shiny happy characters sail off into a sunsetting bliss.

It seems that Bennett copped out on both her series by coupling them in this story. Her overactive imagination runs wild, and ends in a stereotypically flowery style. She clearly wanted all the loose ends double-knotted and sealed off, leaving little hope for future stories. I was left disappointed. I mean, come on! I personally despised the way she gave everyone a promising future, since many of them didn't deserve it. And now that the two series are done, I am especially disappointed. I expected more of this best-selling author. I certainly didn't expect her to fade into the trap of happy endings and peace-love hippie-ness.

If you loved *Trash* and *Pageant*, skip this story. Your own writings will leave you more satisfied than the ones Bennett has printed.

Two Series, One Big Finish!
PAGEANT and TRASH come together in a totally cool way. Lisa Easton emerges as one of the freshest characters in recent memory. The Virus wreaks more havoc. Fun, fun, fun. If you want a serious book, read Cherie's LIFE IN THE FAT LANE or MBurgess'ss' SMACK. If yuou want a load of fun, read this one!

Katie and Lisa are on tour!
We finally find out what happens to everyone from all the pageants. The Virus is furious and wants the crown back. Will she try to kill Katie? How far will she go? Pepper is finally starting to face the reality about her baby. What will she do? Christie is having qualms about exposing her friends to get a jump start on her journalism career. An interesting twist of events occurs in all the stories you've been following since book one. This was a great book because it tells what happens to all the characters. Cherie Bennet is an awesome writer. It would be totally cool if she continues the series with the next Miss Teen Spirit pageant. I couldn't put this book down!

readable series
This isnt as good as the first book but still pageturning.This time It is teen angel Nicoles mission and her mission-if she chooses to accept it,or doesnt she have a choice?,I dont know-is to prevent a young girl from having a baby.

I Loved this book
This book is great! Nicole is sent down to earth to help Petunia, who wants to have a baby! Nicole knows the assignment is hard, and she isn't sure if she will be successful. In the meantime, although she swore herself she wouldn't, she's falling for an earth-bound guy. It has a very suprising ending...

If you have read this book, E-mail me at BuffyTVS87@aol.com

Fantastic, and touching.
Love Never Dies is one of the best books I have ever read. Nicole is sent down to earth to save Petunia from ruining her life, and Nicole knows that she is in for a mega hard assignment, and to make it worse, she is falling for an earth-bound guy....a very touching book with characters that many can relate to.

Definitely Funny but 4 Stars
This book is basically about a boy who is a big time racist and he receives an hourglass from his racist dad for his birthday. When ever he flips the glass, he can pierce the fabric of time (he can move at super fast speed like Clark Kent). This new found power allows him to commit hate crimes without ever getting caught. And with a multicultural celebration coming up in Smallville, it is up to Clark to prevent the bad boy from ruining it for everyone.

an ok book
the town of smallville has decided to host a multicultural event
where people of diffrent races can get together and display diffrent parts of their culture. but before the big day can arrive, someone is hellbent on stopping it. homes and property are vandalized and the local sheriff seems as stomped as anyone
as to who is behind it. the book is better than most smallville books but i think the author needs to put my action in these books and make it more like the tv show and less like an 8 year
old's book.

Review on Sunset After Dark
This book is about when Darcy Laken has some psychic flashes. She met a new girl, Molly Mason, on Sunset Island where she works for her uncle. Unfortuantely, Darcy has a flash that Molly was in a car accident and she was. From this, Molly learns that she will never be able to walk again. After the accident, Molly's parents ask Darcy if they would like to come and live with and also help take care of Molly. The reason they asked her was because Darcy was the only one that could get through to Molly. Molly's parents also offer to help pay for Darcy to go to college. Before this job offer, Darcy had no way to get into college because she couldn't pay for it. She was going to ask her uncle at Sunset Island Ice Cream shop, where she worked, but her uncle was seeing someone and was paying for her daughter to go to college. The author's overall message in this book is if you believe that something is going to happen, it may actually happen. The author's style is she will keep going from place to place. At first, Darcy is at her high school graduation and then we see Darcy at her house. So, unless you have read about the book or heard about it, it is going to keep you guessing what going to happen next.

Um, well I'd say let's rock
THis book I give an eight. Cherie, you usually have way better writing skills. This book is quite creepy to know there is a killer on lose. Yet satisfies your craving for a well written book. It is a compact book. It has thrills, drama, and never leave out friendship,adventure, and action. All of this book has to do with a green vehicle. It is chasing Molly for one or another reasons. Find out for yourself if it is exactly the thing you have been looking for.

could be better
when clark meets a shy young lady at a carnival, he starts to suspect that she may be abused by her father. when he uses his xray vision to confirm this, he finds that she is hiding a much
bigger secret. on top of this, people are starting to get robbed.
could the 2 be connected? or is it just another item for the wall
of the weird? this book starts out with a lot of promise but it goes downhill really fast. from the samllville books i have read fans are better off just watching the tv show.

I really liked this book for many reasons. First I think that everyone wants to change something about themselves at times. Secondly I thought that the characters were well written and believable

Second Book in Sunset After Dark Series
In "Sunset After Midnight," Darcy Laken has just started college and met a sophisticated classmate named Tony Mendez, who she starts dating, even though she already has a boyfriend: Scott Phillips, a Sunset Island police officer. Tony works at Foxfire Stables, where Darcy hopes her good friend, Molly Mason, will learn to ride her horse again in their riding program for the disabled. (Molly's a paraplegic.) However, shortly after Molly boards her horse there, strange things start happening--like theft, arson, and poisoning--and soon the staff at Foxfire Stables are under suspicion, specifically Tony.

It's rather obvious who the bad guy is; in fact, the reader will probably be able to guess him/her about halfway into the book. And as for motive, there isn't one. A couple other reasons why I gave this book a "4" instead of a "5" was because I was a little disappointed about the telepathic scenes--or lack of them. Darcy apparently has ESP; however, the only telepathy I was aware of were her nightmares, and anyone can have those.

Also, the romance was a bit corny and unbelievable. I didn't feel any major spark between the couples, even though the author repeatedly stated they were crazy about each other. But "Sunset After Midnight" was a quick read (I read it in one day), so I had to give it at least a "4". Fans of teen romantic suspense and of the Sunset Island books should probably like this spin-off series, even though Cherie Bennett doesn't do the writing herself--a ghostwriter (Jessica Lynn) does.

A twelve year old reader from licking county
The author of this book is cherie bennet. the book was published by Little Brown and Company in 2002 and the title is Smallville see no evil.

THE BOOK WITH A LITTLE SECRET
See No Evil is a fabulous tie-in novel to the hit television series Smallville. The authors do a really great job of capturing the way that Clark, Lana, Pete, Chloe, and the whole group speaks. Dawn a really cocky person that wants to go to broadway and has the potential to do so has a secret, she can be invisible. Clark gets caught in the mixup between Dawn and her boyfriend Mike, that has the potential to go on Broadway as well, and it is not pretty. Dawn gets bored of mike and beats him up brutially I mean it had to hurt ( while she was invisible I might add ). Mike is sent to the hospital and has a broken leg. Clark got bored one night while he was at home after finishing his schoolwork and memorized the whole play in like one night (probably because of his superpowers). So when Clark found out that Mike broke his leg Clark was Volunteered by Pete and Chloe. Clark had a little problem with stage fright though and he forgot to mention it I guess and he got stuck with the job. So he went from flunky to Cyrano the most important part in the play. The only reason that he was even there was that lana was on the stage crew and now he is the leading role in Cyrano he is Cyrano. Clarks friend Lex Luthor Donated a huge lighting board for the school play Cyrano But still everyone knows that the only reason that lex donated the lighting board was because it was his favorite play and Clark was in it. When Clark found out he was disappointed because of his stage fright he couldn't do any thing he just really stuttered the lines out and barely got through the rehearsal He thought that Lex deserved better after donating the very expensive lighting board. Clark had saved lex's life on many occasions though so he didn't feel all that bad. Lex's favorite play was Cyrano so Lex gave him a few pointers on what he should be like and that helped him out a good bit. One day Clark was in his loft and Dawn hit a horse (again while she was invisible) the horse didn't like that very much so it went tramping around and almost smashed Lana but Clark ran superspeed and saved her. That all ended out in a good manner.
Chloe the publisher of the torch (the school newspaper) finds out how weird it was that mikes knees buckled like he was hit. Clark thought it was weird too. They all find out about her and its only another addition to the wall of weird which is all of the weird that happen in smallville just so you know there from the meteor shower that hi in Smallville when Clark was transferred from Krypton and to earth. I shouldn't really tell the rest in detail because i dont want to give away the ending but out of alot books that is one of my favorites.
