LynnMPK | Jun 29, 2023 |   I remember reading this trilogy as a teen and being obsessed with these books. I didn’t remember anything about them but decided to re-read them after seeing one in a used book store. Fog is the first in this trilogy and you get introduced to Christina, the main character. She’s a young teen just starting 7th grade. I found her to be headstrong and smart. You really root for her and hope that she overcomes the horrible things that happen around her. This book is psychological horror/thriller that deals with emotional and mental abuse of children. I found it to be atmospheric and dark, but not without hope. Snow The second book in the series, it continues where the first left off. I remember this one being my favorite out the trilogy. It's super creepy and foreboding. I've always thought that winter time, with it's below freezing temperatures and snow covered stillness, was the scariest time of the year. Christina continues to be a strong, no nonsense character. She's figured out some mysteries, but there are more answers to uncover in the third, and final, book. Fire The last book in the trilogy. It wraps up nicely (if a little conveniently). I never felt that this series was repetitive, even though I could certainly see others thinking that they are. Christina continues to be strong and willful. All of the adults continue to be blind to the truth or evil. Overall, I think this series holds up to a modern reading and I can definitely understand why teenaged me was obsessed with it.

Onderdeel van de reeks(en)Losing Christina (Set 1-3) Bevat
Something is terribly wrong with the Shevvingtons. Something evil. Fog Ever since moving into the Shevvingtons' boarding house, Christina's schoolmates have started acting strangely. Michael and Benjamin are standoffish, and Anya seems to be losing her mind. Christina is certain the seemingly perfect Mr. and Mrs. Shevvington are behind it all, but no one will believe her. Are her friends going crazy in the Schooner Inne--or is Christina? Snow The Shevvingtons seems to be winning whatever sick psychological game they're playing with their young boarders. Anya is a sad, quiet shell of her former self, and now the Shevvingtons are manipulating Christina's old friend Dolly. But no one will listen to Christina when she claims that the Shevvingtons are behind the girls' strange behavior. Then Christina starts hearing scary noises in the basement. Are the Shevvingtons targeting her next? Fire The semester is almost over. Christina is almost free. But then she begins sleepwalking, unconsciously doing dangerous things like leaving lit candles around the house, carrying around pockets full of matches, and doodling flames into her textbooks--or so claim the Shevvingtons. Can Christina survive until the school year ends? Or will the Shevvingtons turn Christina's life into a fiery hell? Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

The last book in the trilogy. It wraps up nicely (if a little conveniently). I never felt that this series was repetitive, even though I could certainly see others thinking that they are.
