Bad Dreams by R.L. Stine

2.0

Despite my love of fear street, I found this book to be slow and not exceptionally exciting. The book mostly revolved around the girl’s bad dreams.

The only enjoyable part of the book was the end, where almost all the action took place. The book's conclusion explained the friends' injuries and Andrea's gain.

The story needed more events, not just at the end. There was a touch of supernatural in the air. Her dream literally had her running through a cave out of nowhere... This book is pointless and boring. Stine did not fully exploit the potential of the bad dream. The book had little horror or excitement, as it was mostly about her swimming and fighting with her sister. The antagonist's motive was also unclear.

There is nothing special about the Bad Dream. The book has certain parts that can make you so annoyed that you may want to kill Andrea. Do I suggest it? No, not really.
