This was such an enjoyable book. I don't think I have ever encountered a more evil character than Kim White. If Satan had a daughter, I'm sure she'd be something like Kim.

I especially loved the first part of the book where Kim changes from an ordinary bored teenager who has everything a teenager could possibly want (good looks, popularity, money, boys,...), but isn't satisfied with it into a sadistic sociopath who only finds pleasure in the misery of her peers, teachers and everyone else except her dad. The way she manipulates her teacher Mr. Blakley and his naive daughter Caitlyn is sheer evil genius.

The second part of the book will appeal more to the afficionados of gore, violence, torture, murder, cannibalism and necrophilia, as Kim becomes more physical in her torments. The author gets a bit carried away towards the end of the book, but that doesn't diminish the fun I had reading it.
