Just finished "My Best Friend's Exorcism".

It's a story about two young teenage girls in the 80s who are bets friends.  One of them from a poor lower class family, the other from a upper class family that pretty much places image above everything and doesn't believe in fun.  The upper class girl ends up getting possessed and starts doing various evil stuff while he friends does everything she can to try to save her.  However nobody believes her and the possessed girl keeps setting her up to take the fall for everything. 

it's actually a mostly fun book with some good character work.  Not as much horror as you'd expect though, and the ending just falls flat.  Rather than have some big climax and celebration, the story just slowly deflates. 

This is actually the THIRD books I've read from the author and everytime, I've enjoyed the book right up until the last few chapters were it just all seems to fall apart.The guy just can't stick the endings.
