Interesting take on Satan's minions. Classified as teen/YA, I was a bit shocked at the killing and suicide scenes.

Jane is a senior at St Theresas prep school, too smart for her own good. Allyson is her loser friend, who sells her soul to the devil in exchange for popularity. Jane ends up stepping in to save her friend, and has to figure out a way to outsmart the demon.

I was expecting a little more fluff with this book. It took about 100 pages for the action to pick up, and i had to re-read the prolouge after finishing it, in order to understand it.

The storyline was enough to keep my intrest, but i gave it only 3.5 stars only because I didnt like Jane much, and the scenes jumped around quickly. I would NOT reccomend this book for younger teens.
