Period.8 is about a group of students who gather together in 8th-period free period. Mr. Logs teaches it, and in it the students open up and ask for advice. Whatever happens in Period.8 stays private. While most of the students are honest, some of them will do anything to keep their secrets. (Duh-du...

I’m still trying to figure out what exactly I read and where exactly it all went wrong.Well, I know where it all went wrong–I was sick of the dialogue by page two, and equally sick of the narration by page nine. I seriously contemplated throwing in the towel. But I figured plenty of books began crap...

What??? I just finished Period.8 and the ending left me hanging. Come on, as the characters were finishing up their dialogue and I was finally putting all the pieces together I had my ending all wrapped up in my head and then Mr. Crutcher throws in some added pieces into the mix in the final pages a...

This is one of those `it's not you it's me' reads. I think many people will enjoy this thriller but it did nothing for me. This book has a lot to offer, it is smart, thought provoking and interesting.For me the issue was the writing. It wasn't bad writing but the writing but the style just wasn't fo...

I feel like there were two competing story lines in Period 8. There’s the events of the actual Period 8, a lunchtime get together of a jumble of high school students from different backgrounds, social groups, and grade levels. They’re led by Logs, the supportive teacher who leads what, in essence, b...

I've never read anything by this author before but I wanted to read this story because for some reason, I thought someone in Period 8 was a serial killer and well, I don't know why I thought that but I did and I was curious. So, I read it.So Period 8 is basically a place where students can come and...
