I disliked the main character for over half the book. Thought she had I'm so much better and special syndrome.

It took a while for me to finish this book, but it was worth it! I enjoyed the twist at the end!

“Bad Moonlight” is part of the Fear Street Super Chiller series. These books are similar to the Fear Street originals, but tend to be longer (around 175 to 250 pages). Although the books are longer, they are still short compared to most young adult literature and remain quick and easy reads.
“Bad Moonlight” follows Danielle and her new band as they perform gigs and begin to get popular. Danielle, having just suffered the recent death of her parents, is suffering from traumatic violent fantasies. Danielle has to learn that her fantasies are related to the bands secret.
I liked how Stine incorporated the group’s identity into the music, especially when Danielle discuss some of the lyrics for a new song with the band. “Bad Moonlight” actually had me guessing for longer than most Fear Street novels. I think this was because of the way Stine focuses on Danielle’s experiences more than the bands comradery. I was glad for this because it made the book more exciting than other Fear Street novels.

Some really sweet 90s outfits on the cover. The songs inside are definitely Disney channel movie worthy. The story is pretty ridiculous as expected.

Not one of Stine's better books, but passingly entertaining.

5 stars full of 90s nostalgia
My Rating of this book has a lot to do with nostalgia because R.L.Stine was my favourite author during my early teens. Just seeing this cover brings back happy memories of reading his Fear Street, Goosebumps and Point Horror series. In fact, I think R.L.Stine sparked off my love of paranormal and urban fantasy genre.
I think it's time to introduce my kids to these books and Nancy Drew. :)
