Remembering the Titanic por Diane Hoh

I read this book while I was in grade/junior high. I liked it and wanted to see what I remembered of it, or if it was as good as I thought as a young teenager.

Titanic the long night por Diane Hoh

Well so far (1/3rd of the way in) we have a more than obvious rehash of the film Titanic. Rose .. I mean Elizabeth is rebelling against her upcoming marriage to the boring Alan (who isn't on the ship), her overbearing mother, the wealthy lifestyle (she'd rather be free to do whatever - but with money please), and etc. Enter Jack .. oops Max. Having spent time penniless in Paris pursuing a penniless artist lifestyle. (unlike Jack he's actually wealthy and headed home to New York now - oh and staying in 1st class) Representing the poor/3rd class we have Kathleen and her neighbors and (brothers) Brian and Patrick; who are all off to America to seek their fortunes.

Hopefully there will be some originality to this plot SOON. (continued) But sadly such was not the case. There was excessive overshadowing and beating the reader over the head with plot points or Titanic experiences already well stated on previous pages. Then after nearly drowning Max(Jack) does survive and returns to Elizabeth(Rose) and they look forward to their future. Kathleen (Katie for short) and her romantic interest (Paddy) also survive. In the epilogue everyone gets a happily ever after. (Oh and money.. Paddy becomes wealthy too)

I notice Ms. Hoh seems to be prolific in other series (by other authors) While I won't be reading any of her work again (yep, I'm avoiding it), I sincerely hope she pens a better story elsewhere.

I will not be recommending this as a worthwhile read for young adults. (which is why I was reading it..)… (más)

Funhouse (Point Horror Book 9) por Diane Hoh

I enjoyed this 90's teen horror. It was a fast read that kept me guessing. My only complaint is that there are so many characters that we really don't get to know any of them that well to help figure out who the killer is. I did like that we had POV chapters from the killer and the diary in the attic was a nice touch. A good amusement park horror book.

The Invitation (Point Horror) por Diane Hoh

Not very popular Sarah and four of her classmates are invited to popular Cass Rockham’s annual Fall party. Sarah isn’t interested in going, but her friends persuade her to change her mind. Once they get to Cass’s party, they wish they had listened to Sarah.

A fast, easy-to-read book for young-adults and teens. It had some exciting moments. An enjoyable Point Horror story from the 90’s.
