Third verse, same as the second and the first! If you've kept up with my reviews then you know by now that I really enjoy seeing Simon Hawke tackle the novelizations of the Friday the 13th movies.  He especially made me love the character of Shelley by giving him a nice degree of sympathetic depth, and the same really goes for Fox! I'm also going through the Michael Avallone novelization of this movie, to compare and contrast. I went through this one first, (and if my understanding is correct, Hawke's version is based on the finished movie, where Avallone's adaptation was made off of an unfinished version/version of the original movie script,) and I think Hawke definitely made all the characters more likeable and their emotions more real.

And again, as with the first two books in the series, I wanna say a huge thank-you to The 80s Slasher Librarian on YouTube for making fan-recordings into free audiobooks on their channel so I could listen to them! These books are impossible to find in print unless you want to cough up a pretty penny, which I'm not keen on. I recommend their channel if you want to go through these novelizations for free, and support them if you're able!
