I Know What You Did Last Summer - Lois Duncan - Complete Review I Know What You Did Last Summer - Lois Duncan - Complete Review

As I said, when I was in my early teens, I loved Loid Duncan books. Now that about 15 years has passed, I can’t say re-reading this makes me want to re-read any of her others. It’s well written and has a fun twist, but I think it is just a better fit for a younger audience. I came across this book sometime last year at a library book sale. I didn't know this was a book. I watched the movie a long time ago and I've watched it several times since then. When I saw this at my local library I decided to get it because I actually really liked the movie and I assumed I would enjoy the book just as much if not more. Unfortunately that wasn't the case for this book. Non so, comunque, se lo definirei young adult. Sì, i protagonisti sono adolescenti, ma mancano tutte le tematiche che fanno dello YA, beh... lo YA. Fiona Rene as Lyla, a police officer who carries out the investigation of the murders and is connected to BruceI remember when this movie came out and I was like, “I swear I read a book with this title years ago.” And I had, as it turns out. By the late, great spooky mystery lite YA author, Lois Duncan. But this wasn’t just a book I had read this one time; we read excerpts from many of Duncan’s books to each other at slumber parties (with lights out and flashlights under our chins, you know, that whole deal.) I am so happy that I finally took the time to read this one. I'm super into nostalgic reads right now, particularly those of the Horror and Thriller variety, so this was exactly what I was looking for.

a b Lodge, Sally (September 23, 2010). "Lois Duncan Thrillers Get an Update". Publishers Weekly . Retrieved July 5, 2019. In and of itself the book is just ok. It’s nothing special, nor seems to have anything significant to make it as much of a YA icon it was and is. Characters are cliched. The story is thin. The eventual climax leaves a lot to be desired in terms of closure.Little plot twist: in the book version they didn’t run over an adult – instead it was a kid . . . .

I Know What You Did Last Summer is an American horror film franchise consisting of three slasher films and one television series, loosely based on the novel of the same name by Lois Duncan. The first installment was written by Kevin Williamson, directed by Jim Gillespie, and released in 1997. I Know What You Did Last Summer is a very good novel. Short and tight with a satisfying conclusion.just kidding, i know why: they thought they could make a larger profit on the rerelease if the book was ~new and improved~ and ~relatable for new generations~) Writing: I read the second version of the book, which was re-written, so there is no other more to say that you will be reading a classic writing with “new” fashion vocabulary. When I started, initially it appeared quite similar, but soon after I realised it was utterly different. Added to which, the book itself was written in the 70s and set around that time, making the 1997 movie completely out of range. The characters have more depth, but equally are nothing like they are portrayed in the film. The deaths are different, everything is different!! It was written in a 'teenage' way but I think that's what appealed to me, and it gives the story a nostalgic feel.
