So did anyone besides Shauna and I read this as a kid? We both read the one with this cover where Heather rocked a mullet and an 80's colorblock sweatshirt. Conversely, Helen wore a lovely white empire-waist dress and had shampoo-commercial hair. Perhaps Helen's superior fashion sense is why I remember rooting for her the first time I read it.
I finished the book about a week ago, really, I couldn't put it down. I am looking forward to talking about our favorite scenes, some of the foreshadowing used, and the way Helen lures in her victims.
The Helen Society was created in October 2008 by Shauna and Stephanie as they dined on delicious homemade bierocks. They shared a mutual love of Mary Downing Hahn, and they concluded that if they made bierocks together so well, surely they could form a book club as well. And thus the Helen Society was born. Fellow fans of young adult fiction rejoice as you can revisit, share, and discuss your childhood favorites.

Just finished! I had forgotten how creepy Heather was. It's as delightfully disturbing as I remember :)
