The Good Son was very suspenseful. It's about a boy named Mark whose mother dies and when his father has to go to Japan on business, Mark is stuck going to his cousins house. After a couple of days, he realizes that his cousin Henry is evil. He does terrible things, and soon it becomes too much for Mark to handle. Henry causes an accident on the freeway, kills a dog, kills his brother and tries to kill his mother.
The reason why I liked this book was because it kept me on the edge of my seat. It definately taught me about having faith in yourself.
I'd recommend it to anyone that loves thrillers.
