I Know What You Did Last Summer

I Know What You Did Last Summer by Lois Duncan


I read Lois Duncan's book, Killing Mr. Griffin many years ago, and enjoyed it. I thought it was a good story that 8th graders could really get in to, as Mr. Griffin is a hated high school English teacher. I know that this book, I Know What You Did Last Summer was made into a movie a few years back, so I was looking forward to the story. Unfortunately, it's almost the exact story as Mr. Griffin, the same premise. A group of young people, while out for a fun summer night, mistakenly hit a young boy riding his bike, and leave him for dead. They try to cover this up, instead of "doing the right  thing". A year later, they all start receiving ominous notes, making them believe that someone else knows their terrible secret. The story moves quickly, and does hold some suspense. Again, I think eighth graders will enjoy this..
