Figured out the twist a few chapters before the end, but that was because we weren't given enough info before that point. Kinda average Fear Street, not great, but certainly not the worst. ( ) I remember reading quite a bit of R.L. Stine when I was younger and really enjoying them. I know I read a few from the Fear Street series but I don't ever remember reading this one. I love reading books that take place before the time of cell phones. Its fun to go back to that. I would rate this more at 4.5 stars because I did really enjoy it and it definitely has a creep factor with a twist that I didn't figure out till about the last 20 pages. I also really love that the POV is a male. Most thriller have the dumb female lead who makes the horrible decisions. It was refreshing to have a male making the ridiculous decisions! It was a little slow at first and Cory is SUPER annoying with how obsessed he become with Anna. The ending did seem a little abrupt but I did really enjoy it and look forward to reading more in the series this month. Having so much nostalgia for Fear Street, I wanted to like this more than I did when I revisited it twenty-five years after the last time I read it. It doesn't hold a candle to great '80s YA horror writers like Caroline Cooney or Christopher Pike, as parts of it feel rushed and the ending barely makes sense. But it is a decent and fun story about that moment in every teen's life when they wonder whether their partner is actually dead. A decent if rather mundane start to the series. The most enjoyable part is the characterizations. Cory and Lisa are characters pretty much any kid can identify with and it's a pleasure to follow them through the story. The plot is the major downfall here - it just isn't all that interesting. I still don't understand how Cory didn't see Willa Corwin's name in the school files and immediately make the connection. It's a plot hole, and a rather glaring one. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
