Summary:

"Do you want to know a secret? During a round of Truth or Dare, Abby Miller confesses her crush on Jake Chilson. The only people who know her secret are her friends at her sleepover--and whoever sent her a text message in the middle of the night warning her to stay away from Jake...or else! But Abby isn't going to stay away from Jake, especially not after he asks her to the school dance. As the night of the dance approaches, some very creepy things start happening to Abby. Someone definitely wants to sabotage her plans with Jake. Is it a jealous classmate, or, as Abby begins to suspect, could it be a ghost?"-- Dust jacket cover.

Truth or Dare ... the Graphic Novel

Abby's admission during her sleepover seems to have incited jealousy from someone--she just needs to learn who. Abby hosts a sleepover with her friends. She admits that she likes Jake, and shortly after, she receives a threatening text from an unknown number, warning her to stay away from "him"--presumably Jake. Leah tells her it must be a wrong number, but Abby isn't so sure--especially when Leah texts Abby reminding her of their recently deceased classmate Sara James, who was killed in a car crash and who had been romantically involved with Jake. After Jake asks Abby to an upcoming dance, strange things start happening--Abby sees a girl staring into her window, and she finds a lock of hair in her drawer. She starts to wonder if Sara's ghost could be responsible. The first in a series of graphic-novel adaptations of the You're Invited to a Creepover titles has real appeal for late elementary and middle school readers. The story is immediately engaging and comes to a quick resolution. There are twists and turns, and just when the narrative feels predictable, it takes a turn that will keep readers guessing. Fans of Goosebumps and Stranger Things graphic novels will certainly enjoy this one. Dynamic artwork with effective use of color ramps up the creep factor without ever becoming too terrifying. Abby presents as Black, while Jake, Leah, and Sara present as White. Sure to please young connoisseurs of terror tales. (Graphic novel. 8-12) Copyright (c) Kirkus Reviews, used with permission.
