One day, Kate hears voices while she’s in the graveyard putting flowers on her grandmother's grave. It was
her sickly mother's request; she fulfilled it before she went to school after her visit to her mother’s hospital
bed. Of course she just thinks that the whispers are someone talking, since the halls are really hollow and you
can hear just about anything from the graves. Well, when the days pass by she starts to hear phone
conversations that talk about things that haven't happened yet, so she goes and talks to her mom, who is
recovering from her illness. That same night, though, Kate hears a phone conversation that reveals a terrifying
future.
Justin has gotten brand new shoes because of some random ‘contest’ at the sneaker store -- but what he
doesn’t know is that even though the shoes might be really cool, what they do is not cool at all. When some
incidents happens, such as when Justin’s neighbor’s car is covered in yellow paint, he finds that the bottom of
his shoe is covered in YELLOW PAINT!!! Then some days pass and he locks his shoes in his closet -- he's
sure that someone has been taking his shoes and committing these unreasonable crimes. Then he figures
out that it's the shoes themselves doing the crimes! When he's had enough of the shoes, he decides to take
them to the dumpster and just throw them out for good -- but something very weird happens that might just put
Justin’s life in jeopardy!
Tim is over at his grandmother’s house while his parents are away. He’s exploring on a very nice warm day,
and comes across a beautiful orchard full of apples. He’s just sitting there, having a good time, when his
neighbor comes out and tells him to leave. Furious, the neighbor comes barging into his house and tells Tim
and his grandmother that if he’s over at the orchard one more time they're going to have the worst time of
their life. Tim gets so mad that the next day he goes over and does some damage to the orchard. After his
satisfaction was complete, he took an apple and started munching on it. The next day, he feels sick -- and
some very weird things start happening.
VOICES is a total thriller all the way to the end. These were three of the scariest stories I have read, and I give
this book an absolute 5 stars!
