In the spring of 1998, Kouichi Sakakibara transfers to Yomiyama North Middle School. In class, he develops a sense of unease as he notices that the people around him act like they’re walking on eggshells, and students and teachers alike seem frightened. As a chain of horrific deaths begin to unfold around him, he comes to discover that he has been placed in the cursed Class 3 in which the student body head count is always one more than expected.

To stop the vicious cycle gripping his new school, Kouichi decides to get to the bottom of the curse, but is he prepared for the horror that lies ahead…?

This is an amazing book.

If you are into horror, I would definitely recommend this book. In fact, even if you are not into horror, I would definitely recommend this book.

The premise of the novel is about a curse that happens every year to the students of North Yomi, Year 3 Class 3. The story grips you on as the first part of the novel engages you in a wild goose chase, trying to find out what the hell is wrong with the class. The second part is just as engaging... more>> with the whodunnit (or in this case whoisit).

To be honest, the twist wasn't really that surprising for me. I've heard of people going crazy for the twist, saying how unexpected or crazy it was. I agree that it was unexpected, however, once you've read a fair share of whodunnits, you'd probably be able to take whoever it was with stride.

It was the gripping sense of loss and confusion that the protagonist went through that was really the clincher. I spent the whole time reading the novel at the edge of my seat. I was so curious that I found myself contemplating multiple time on whether I could just flip over to the outroduction and just be done with it. I'm glad that I read it normally though as it really was the process that gave me the most satisfaction.

Overall, this is a good read. Even if you are not into the horror genre, I would highly recommend it. <<less

Now, I don't want to sound biased, but I love the Another books. Books. Yes, multiple. Another and the sequel, which is not posted on here, Another 2001.

Another surrounds North Yomi, a school with a haunted class. Grade 3, class 3. Due to a mistake, that was frankly no one's fault because how could you figure this would be the outcome?, a phenomenon strikes this specific class every 2-3 years. The full story of this curse is explained in the first few pages, so I won't go into detail.... more>> But in my opinion though, Ayatsuji has created a story with a captivating history. I'm such a fan of this series.

I appreciate the horror in Another. We follow Koichi Sakakibara throughout learning about this class curse in his transfer year. He's a neat character. Just an average young boy with alarming health issues--frankly, too young to be having these health issues, but it does happen. That's one thing I love about Ayatsuji's books. Characters and situations all feel very realistic given the situation. He does an amazing job writing these out. And his characters are always so good, and if they have even the slightest bit of impact on the main character, you still get a little more than "this character's name is X." You get little backstory, even if it's only a small amount. It's nice.

You will experience angst, horror, betrayal, shock, some comedy, and maybe the smallest smidge of romance. Ayatsuji is very good at sneaking romance and/or comedy in. So, if you're a fan of horror novels that stick to the plot very well but stray the tiniest bit for sillies every once in a while, this might be the book for you.

This is seriously my top series for my favorites, so I have so much to say, and I could go on, and on, and on, and on--you get it. I would recommend this series to literally anyone. I'm so curious as to how the curse will continue to grow and what new things will be learned about it each year. <<less
