Every teenager likes to have a little fun. It could be swimming in the ocean, taking long walks on the beach at night, playing tennis with some friends, or even having a little summer romance. As for Maria and her friends in 1956, and Ashley and her friends in the present though, their summer fun is exploring the old abandoned beach house at the top of the dunes. But sometimes, their fun is turned to a frightening terror at night, and some things in town start to change.
Maria and her friends were the type who liked to have a little fun. They didn’t care what the joke was, or who it was on, they just liked to have fun. So when they met someone new one day on the beach named Buddy, they decided to prank him. Buddy wasn’t the type who could stand for things like that though, and after a while, started to get attracted to Maria. Things start to go wrong in the town, with Buddy and Maria’s friends, and some even started to disappear. As for Ashley and her friends though, in the present, they were the type to spend all day just hanging out, and having as much romance as they could get out of the summer. They met someone named Brad though, halfway through the summer, and decided he was a pretty cool guy to hang out with. But then things in their town also started to act up, and Ashley noticed things starting to go wrong. Both groups were held in suspense about the beach house, wondering what it was about the place the crept everyone out, besides the rumors, and both explored it when they had the spear time. Once things started to really go wrong though, the truth started to unravel itself.
I thought Beach House was a great book, that always kept you in suspense, and never wanting to put the book down. I recommend this book to anyone who likes to read horror books, and who likes to be in the edge of their seats. It is a summer horror for two groups, and was a trick to some, and is just the book for anyone who can read for hours.
