I started reading this book on 09/03/2009. I finished this book on 09/04/2009.

I love re-reading these books as just a small and quick read. I think it's funny how I can read it and remember loving these books when I was younger. They are still good but I'm just older now.

I was completely obsessed with the Fear Street books when I was in middle school and I’ve been on the hunt, searching for the books now. I really regret not keeping them when I was younger because I had quiet a collection. So decided to re-read for nostalgia purposes and I enjoyed it just as much as I did in the 90s. Hope to be able to find more to read.

I really liked this one. I loved how close Deena got with her half brother Chuck. It was so sweet & cute at the end.
I'm definitely going to read this one again :)

 The Wrong Number was super fun! I really like the premise of a prank call gone wrong in one of the worst possible ways and how Deena and Jade tried to figure out what happened. The overall atmosphere was pretty tense and I really liked how the story wrapped up--even though the ending was a bit rushed.

I really loved this book, eventhough the scary aspect was on a mild tone. The whole setup was good and the way the book progressed was exciting.

Really loved the character of Deena and the final wrap-up.

Introduces the first “on-screen” dead body/murder. Still pretty light on the gore. Books read pretty much like a Lois Duncan style mystery and less like horror.
