Creepy teen mind candy
Even years later, there are lines from this book that still haunt me. I never did get around to seeing the movie version of this book, but I only hope it was as spine-tingling as the story. Duncan is true to her characters all the way through as...

I can't believe I've never read this before
I'm probably one of the few people out there who didn't have to read this for Jr. High English. Overall, I found it to be just as relevant in 2008 as it was in 1978, illustrating the power of idiots in numbers. As the old proverb goes,...

Regretful Revenge
Lois Duncan's novel, Killing Mr. Griffin, is one of the best novels I have ever read. The book leaves you at the edge of your seat throughout the whole story. The story begins when five high school students plan revenge on a teacher, Mr. Griffin,...

Dumb - not one of Duncan's best
I had a hard time believing that Mr. Griffin's students would go so far as to kidnap him, even if they meant it as a joke. Yes, the idea was that of Mark, a psychopath (the book even describes him as such), but even so, he did not strike me as...

Teaching this book in the upper middle school
This taut, well-told tale raises the pertinent and timely issues of peer pressure and group inspired school violence against teachers, so when shared under the guidance of a teacher, it offers students the chance to explore these subjects in a...

They didn't mean it ...
I first read this book when I was in junior high school. It really was great youth literature for a future lover of horror and suspense. I just didn't know it then, despite the title.

Killing Mr. Griffin
I really really enjoyed Killing Mr. Griffin. Since i'm not really into suspense novels i didn't think i would like this book. But once i started reading it i couldn't put it down. My favorite part of the book was at the end of chapter two. When...

Killing Mr. Griffin Review
I really enjoyed reading Killing Mr. Griffin. Mystery books are my favorite and Killing Mr. Griffin kept my interest. My favorite part was when Mark, Jeff, David, Betsy, and Susan found out Mr. Griffin was dead. David said, "He's not...

fun summer read
We've all had a teacher like the eponymous Mr. Griffin who, by refusing to contribute to grade inflation and massage his students' self-esteem, contributes to years of future therapy. Most of us, as a rule, though, do not respond by kidnapping...
