3.0

And well... I have to say the 12 year old in me who loved Fear Street was a little disappointed. Granted I have matured quite a bit with my reading skill level, I just hoped that the nostalgia would carry me through it. It did, but not really.

Rachel has a crush on Brendan. Brendan invites her to a party on an island. Her friends warn her not to go. Rachel goes. Within minutes of getting off the boat to the island, someone is hurt, most likely dead. That's when my spidey senses woulda been, you know lets head back to the mainland where there is a hospital, not oh well...hopefully my party will get better? But... Brendan likes games. He wants all of his parties to feature something that everyone will remember. The injured boat driver apparently is not enough.

Enter game. Enter all the spooky, scary, death stuff that one comes to know with reading Fear Street.


I am glad that R.L. Sitne is back, if only that the younger generation can now get the shit scared out of them. Although, maybe they should stick to the older books....


3 stars... for nostalgia

This is a good horror book. Just that. Nothing groundbreaking, really well written, i read it in 24 hours, although i haven't done that in almost 2 years. I really recommend it, for a quick scare and a nice time.

Pomysł na fabułę: 4,5⭐️
Sposób pisania: 2,5⭐️ (może to wina tłumaczenia ale jestem przekonana że nikt nie mówi tak jak postacie w tej książce)

Ogólnie główna bohaterka jest durna, jakbym ją spotkała w prawdziwym życiu to bym jej dała w morde po 5 minutach.

JAK MOŻNA FABUŁĘ OPIERAĆ O MORDERSTWA A PISAĆ ŻE TYPIARA ZNALAZŁA KOMPLETNĄ ZACHOWANĄ KLATKĘ PIERSIOWĄ?????? CZY CHRZĄSTKI SIĘ ZACHOWUJĄ W MATERIALE KOSTNYM????????

I would have given this book 5 stars but dropped it to 4.5 stars because with every chapter number there was a spoiler heading which spoiled your chapter. This book was so creepy, gross, I felt like I was on a roller coaster with all the twists and turns. Certainly a page turner. A book I had to read during the day.

I am choosing to not rate these books, as a child I absolutely loved them.

The book drags on a bit. Spends a little too much  time
letting you think people are actually getting killed off And Then There Were None style
before getting to the real plot.
The little twist at the end (the ghost) feels very Goosebumps
