Anonymous said...: Loved that book! I think one of the first things that was said about the mall was that it was climate controlled.... gotta love malls for that fact alone.; Fri Jun 24, 09:58:00 AM

Yeah, I love the cover of this book. It's kind of eerie. Sounds spooky, too! Almost DAWN OF THE DEADish in a way (my favortie movie of all-time).

I would love to get trapped in a mall all night with freakin' mannequins that come to life!

Now that I think of it, why the heck hasn't that happened to me yet?! Life isn't fair, man.; Sat Jun 25, 05:42:00 AM

I haven't seen this book cover in a very long time ... I totally remember reading this during my "Choose Your Own Adventure" book days. Great job!; Sat Jun 25, 10:52:00 AM
