5 comments about The Boyfriend (Point Horror Series).

1. Synopsis: Joanna Collier wants to get rid of her boyfriend Dex because he is not the same status and class as her. She tells him to meet her at the mall for their date, but stands him up, and watches him squirm from a distance. She enjoys tormenting him and even brags to her friend Mary about it. Later that night, Dex enters her room through her window, angry that she stood him up, and tells her to come with him and his friend Pete to the Promontory, a make out spot in the cliffs. Joanna reluctantly agrees and goes with him. When they reach the cliffs, Dex jokes around by jumping at the edge of the cliff. Unfortunately, the ground cracks beneath him, and Dex falls off the cliff. Pete screams at Joanna to help him find Dex, but Joanna takes her car and starts driving, not looking back. Disoriented with thoughts in her mind as to what she should do, she doesn't realize a vehicle coming her way, and gets into an accident.
   
   Months later, Joanna recovers and gets back to her normal life, with her new boyfriend Shep. However, as soon as she arrives from the hospital, Dex comes to her room that night and tells her that he was also in an accident but recovered. Feeling guilty for what happened, she decides to go out with Dex, but notices something strange about him. She notices him looking pale, and standing stiffly, but thinks that he has not fully recovered from the accident. Is Dex recovering, or has he come back from the dead as a ghost to get his revenge on Joanna?
   
   Review: This was such a strange story. I didn't know whether to like it or dislike it after I read it. I must admit, there were some twists to the story which I didn't expect at all, which made me think that Stine was rather creative in some parts. I enjoyed the climax of the book because I did not see that coming.
   
   On the other hand, I hated Joanna. She's stuck up and self-centered, which is why I didn't feel anything for her, even when all those awful things were happening to her. She likes Dex one minute, hates him the next. She enjoys having Shep and Dex as her boyfriends and loves telling Mary about it. I was rooting for Dex and hoping that he would get rid of Joanna once and for all. Well, at least she realized her mistakes in the end, but it still doesn't make me like her.



2. Dex was devastated when Joanna broke up with him. Then he died. Joanna doesn't take it too hard, boys are just toys to her. Then Dex returns from the dead...
   
   Another great read from Stine with a nice twist to its ending



3. This was the first R. L. Stine book I ever read after the Goosebumps books. The plot was interesting, and the high-school-age characters are a little more realistic than the ones in some of his other teenage-audience books.



4. My mom had first got this book for my younger sister from the library. I was curious and I hadnt read R.L Stine since I was a young girl(I grew up reading his books)so i decided to go ahead and read it. What a fast read! I finished in 30 minutes! This book has so many twists and turns, it really keeps you guessing. I absolutely loved the ending : Joanne recieved exactly what she deserved for being such a cruel person. If I had known Dex in real life, I would've dated him, he seemed like such an awesome guy!
   I highly recommend this book, if you want a book that puzzles you, scares you, and throws you onto a windy rolar coaster, this is the book for you!
   
   I now want to read R.L. Stine's The Girlfriend =)



5. I really enjoyed this fast read. I had it done in about two hours. I was thrown for a loop towards the end. Not expecting that. I am happy Joanne got her justly rewards. Enjoy!

5 comments about The First Evil (Fear Street Cheerleaders, No. 1).

1. Bobbi and Corky join the Shadyside cheerleading team, much to the chagrin of all the other team members, and accidentally unleash an ancient evil. It's Fear Street, for crying out loud. What else could happen?
   
   The first time I read this series, I was eleven and whoa, did I love it. Fifteen years later, it's showing its age. I didn't expect I would be wowed again, fifteen years later, but I didn't expect I would cringe with regret, either.
   
   Don't take that the wrong way. The book isn't bad. But with the quality of work available to young adults and tweens nowadays, it simply can't stand as high as it used to. The characters are flat, the plot is benign, and the style was apathetic and cold this time around.
   
   Bottom Line: It's not good. It's not bad. It's average, but in a 1992 sort of way.



2. Corky and Bobbi Corcoran are newcomers to Shadyside. Together, they become cheerleaders in Shadyside High. Bad things start to happen. Jennifer Daly is throw out of the bus and lands at Sarah Fear's grave. Fortunately, she survives. Unfortunately, worse things start to happen.



3. Whooa, I think I still have all three parts of this series. I was a big R L Stine fan. I started off with goosebumps, and quickely moved to the fear street series. I had ALL of the books in the fear street series (this was in 92-97). I gave alot of them to my younger cousins or family friends, but reading some of these reviews, I may just have to locate one and take a hour (thats all it takes now lol) to read one(sad thing is, that I am an 26 yr old) LOL. I like the fear street cheerleader sage (even though I didnt know they had a fourth installment), and the Fear Street Saga (The very first 3, but I see they added ALOT MORE to the fear street history. Reading some of these reviews is like going back in a time machine LOL



4. The Fear street cheerleaders, is about a group of cheer leader (Boobi,Jenifer,Corky,Kimmi, Debra) and them fighting an evil spirit. Corky and Bobbi are new comers to the squad, makeing Kimmi resent them, because they get her friend kicked off the squad(Ronnie). One day, while on the way to a football game, Corky and Bobbi make the bus driver go to fearstreet to pick up the Fire battons. While on the way, Jenifer, the captin of the squad, falls out of the bus. She lands on Sarah Fears grave, and apears to die. She lives, but is unable to walk.
   The next day, Bobbi, much to Kimmis distress, is the captin. She then hooks up with Kimmis ex boy friend, Chip. After that thoug, wierd things happen. Bobbi hears screaming in the halls, doors open and shut, and Chip, in mid quater back football toss, freezes. Nobody, not even Corky, belives her.
   A few days later, the Cheerleader are doing a jump. Kimmi jumps of one girls shoulders, and Bobbi catches her, but Bobbi freezes. Kimmi jumps off, and hurts her wrist. Practise ends, and Bobbi goes to see Jenifer. Jenifer acts normal, but while leaving, Bobbi watches as Jenifer stands up and walks. Corky thinks she is insane.
   The next day, Bobbi is thrown off the squad. She goes to take a shower, and gets cought in boilling hot water. Bobbi tries to escape, but gets cought in boilling water. Bobbi then boils to death. Corky was late for practise. While looking for Bobbi, she finds a neckless that Kimmi wears. She then findsa Boobis broilled body.
   Cory first thinks it was Kimmi, because of the neckless. Kimmi said that she gave it to Jenifer though. Corkys goes to see Jenifer, but finds out she is at the grave yard. Corky sees her walking, and Dancing around Sarah Fears grave. Jenifer turns out to be possed by the evil spirit, who possed Sarah Fear. Corky defates the evil, and Jenifers two month dead body is reviled. Corky knows the evil isn't gone forever.



5. Corky and Bobbi Corcoran are the two new girls on the cheerleading squad at Shadyside High.When they cheer everyone finds out how good they really are.What will Jenifer Daly do to Bobbi when she finds out that Bobbi is the new cheerleading captain?Now some of the strangest things are happening to Bobbi,Corky,and other people of Shadyside High,who could be to blame for the murders?The strange noises,the weird thoughts,and akward actionsof people.What's going on?Could it be the evil spirit of Sarah Fear agian? This book was very interesting and suspenseful I gave it five stars.

5 comments about The Deep End of Fear.

1. i thought this was a very good book. it had just the right amount of suspense, supernatural and romance to make it this way. Elizabeth Chandler is an amazing author and has proved that in her writing. Dark Secrets is a very good series and i recomend it to anyone, not just teens.



2. Elizabeth Chandler is a writers and a readers GOD!!!! She's an amazing person I have all of the dark secret books and only plead her to write more and more! I got the first book by an actdicent but I search everywhere for the others. You'll be hooked
   I warned you



3. Dark Secrets: The Deep End of Fear by Elizabeth Chandler is one of the best mystery books. I had never read a mystery book that I couldn't put down the book once I start reading it. The story sets in Westbrook estate, Wisteria, Maryland, and the main character is Kate Venerelli. Dark Secrets: The Deep End of Fear is about a young girl, Kate, has been supposedly lured into drowning incident a few years before the actual story begins. Twelve years ago Kate's family left the Westbrook estate, just after Ashley Westbrook drowned in an icy pond. Now Kate, alone in the world, has returned to the estate. Kate, the hired, full- time tutor, tutors another spoiled Westbrook child, Patrick. It gives the impression that the young girl comes back to haunt them, because Patrick seems to have some connection since Kate has been tutoring him. He does deadly, dangerous things, such as diving into a drained pool, because he says, "Ashley dared me to." Just as Ashley once dared Kate twelve years ago. But at seventeen, "Ashley" or unfriendly members of her family or the forbidding housekeeper do not easily threaten Kate. Then Sam, the high school hockey team member, reveals a tragic link that connects him to Kate. Sam tells Kate to leave Westbrook estate immediately, but she will not abandon Patrick to the evil. In my opinion, this novel has a great story plot and will keep you hooked for hours. The climax or the best part of the story is when the friendly Joseph discloses himself as the indirect murderer of Ashley, and Ashley's grandfather, Adrian, is the person who hires Joseph. I think teens that like mystery books would best appreciate this book. Before reading this book, I had selected three other books, and found them dreary. Then, I had chosen this book to read for this assignment, because two of my classmates that had chosen other books from this series highly recommend it to me. I had also read the other books from the series too, after I finished this book. Compare to the other books, this book has the best story plot, but the story goes in the slowest pace of all. Therefore, I think the author needs more revision on keeping the story to flow faster.



4. This is simply outstanding, the characters are rich and captivating. The plot is unusually intriguing and the fright-factor is perfect. I absolutely love this book and would reccomend it to just about anyone!
   *Note*
   It is a touch scary, but don't let this detour you, it is a phenominal book that is surely worth reading and the scariness is pure plot-enhancement!



5. All books are located in the same place, and this story is definatly the longest by far! It's prolonged a little too much; there wasn't anything she said in 350 pages that she could have said in 200. This one was definatly my least favorite out of the five (fifth I have yet to read). It starts kind quick and ends really slow. There was sick family love in the end... and I finished it actually happy it was over with.

2 comments about Eight Tales of Terror.

1. So Mr. Poe is pretty much the master of terror, am I right? That is fairly proven in this sample of some of his most famous stories. It may not be a complete collection, but if you need a shorter version of his work this is excellent to have at hand.



2. Eerie ... Weird ... Terrifying ... Chilling stories by Edgar Allan Poe, the master of terror: "The Fall of the House of Usher," "The Mask of the Red Death," "The Cask of the Amontillado," and five other tales that hover on the edge of madness and pull you into a nightmared world -- from the back cover.

5 comments about Secret Admirer (Fear Street, No. 36).

1. peaople who say this is 4 kids under 12 or whatever your wrong its just cause you dont understand it this book was amazing i loved it i couldnt put it down it took me 40 or 50 min. 2 read it



2. Selena has landed the lead in the school play and her popularity is sky high. Then she receives a present with a trhreatening content, and accidents start happening on the set. Some one doesn't like Selena very much.
   
   I didn't like this one very much.
   The protagonist is so conceited and doesn't see how she treats her friends. I simply couldn't root for this character.
   As I finished the book, I almost felt ready to cheer for the purpetrator!
   
   The plot is fairly good, though by no means among the best Fear Street books.



3. This is one of the best Fear Street books I have read. The main story is Selene Goodrich becoming popular at Shadyside High because of her acting career. Everyone adores her, everyone supports her. Then Selena starts getting mysterious notes from "The Sun" who claims to be her secret admirer. Selena takes all this as joke but then, bad things start to happen. Alison, Selena's understudy is injured after a cabinet is thrown on her. Selena also gets a dead mouse in front of her house with another note from The Sun, a speeding car nearly kills her. Then, someone else is murdered. Selena knows the Sun is responsible but who is the Sun? Could it be Danny Morris, that guy who Selena just broke up with or could it be Eddy, the new guy in town? Or is it someone else?
   
   This book was a pageturner. In two hours, I was finished with this book. I was really surprised when Selena found out who the killer was. The book provided a good murder scene and the killer was also smart.



4. This was a great book. Yet... some stuff I expected [i knew who it was all along] that just may be because i'v read sooo many of his books. I highly recomened his seres 'The babysitter' one of his best.Hit and Run



5. The "Secret Admirer" has got to be one of the spine-chilling horror I have ever read. The story goes on when Selena is receiving presents from a stalker who is obessed with her. In the end she found out is the stalker and she never thought it was someone close to her.

5 comments about The Watcher's Guide, Volume 3 (Buffy the Vampire Slayer).

1. Simply put, the first two "Watcher's Guide" were fun and in-depth, this third one--not so much. The first Guides seem to add a lot of additional information even for the devoted BtVS fan. The third guide read like newspaper clippings and/or national magazine glib articles written by some one who wrote about the phenomena and not the creative essence of "Buffy" the show. And I loved Tara and her relationship with Willow, but for some reason, nothing new or substantial about their bond is added into the third guide. REALLY DISAPPOINTING. Why was this one so lack luster?



2. This book was sooo cool! If you're a Buffy freak like me :) It has all kinds of cool extras in it, not just episode recaps. It has quotes, trivia and much more! I would definately reccomend buying this. It does only have seasons 5-7. This and the other Watcher Guides I'm sure..will help keep Buffy alive!!



3. The book itself was just like new. No dents or creases on the pages.



4. I am a HUGE Buffy fan and this will make an awesome addition to my collection. Great condition and quick shipping! Thanks!



5. Especially if you are writing about the series or something, and you want to know exactly when something happened or a reminder of some series of events, it really helps not to have to watch the whole season again. The essays were mediocre, but as a reference book - I'll probably have to order the other two too!

5 comments about Seven Tears into the Sea.

1. This is the first time I ever hear of selkies. As per Wikipedia - Selkies (also known as silkies or selchies) are mythological creatures that are found in Faroese, Icelandic, Irish, and Scottish folklore. Selkies are able to become human by taking off their seal skins, and can return to seal form by putting it back on.
   
   In Seven Tears Into the Sea, Ms. Farley tells the tale of a selkie boy and his lady love. What I most enjoyed about this story was the writing - it flows with a lyrical quality making the story sometimes feel sad and other worldly, yet there were times that were light and funny. Her characters are realistically portrayed although there is a paranormal element. The descriptions of the beach, the town, and the bed and breakfast where Gwen is helping out at during the summer, really give it a relaxed feel but at the same time there are so many moments where it feels whimsical - almost like a modern day fairytale.
   
   The story is told through Gwen's perspective so you only get to see and feel what she does. I wish we would have learned a little bit more of Jesse - this would be my only complaint. But I was still pleased with the story as told through Gwen's eyes. The relationship that forms between them is sigh worthy and even tear inducing (on my part).
   
   All in all, this was a lovely story. Ms. Farley masterfully uses the selkie myths and interweaves them into this story - making it a poignant yet mesmerizing read. I found it to be a very refreshing, unique and the perfect summer read.



2. As a young girl Gwennie had was a sleep walker. One evening she found herself in the sea off the beach of their cottage, being rescued by a young man, an unclothed young man. When she was found the adults all thought she was troubled, or even abused by some stranger, but Gnew had nagging feelings about the reality of that night.
   7 years later, her gypsy-like grandmother breaks her leg and needs help to run her sea-side inn on that same beach. When returns to the small town where the people still whisper about her. Once she reaches the cottage and is left alone, the cove and the waters call to her. She goes to watch the sea lions, and recalls her strange night of sleepwalking and suddenly Jesse appears. He is dark haired drifter that she is drawn to, and finds unnervingly familiar.
   This book started out on familiar note of fairy tales, but draws deeply of Scottish and Irish lore of selkies, handsome men who are also sea lions who shed their skin to walk on land. Gwen, the main character is likable, though the others could be more developed. Jesse has almost too much mystery to him, but is intriguing.
   
   I enjoyed this book, and the ending will have me rereading it to check for more hidden myths I might have missed. It's a quick, interesting read.



3. Seven Tears for Seven Years is a delightful story that mixes a contemporary theme with ancient myth and magic. Set on the Oregon Coast, Terri Farley brings vivid characters to life and gives an authentic voice to each of them. This perfect YA level book has just the right amount of romantic tension and edginess without going overboard.
   
   A seventeen year old girl, working at her grandmother's inn for the summer, falls in love with a boy/man who could possibly be a selkie. Her old friends become bothersome, the townie thugs are out to hurt the sea lions, and Midsummer's Eve is just around the corner. Lots of great atmosphere and a good story line will keep you from putting this one down.



4. I couldn't really get into this book. It seemed so interesting, and I was excited to read it but the plot seemed to drag. The beginning felt so slow and then once things started to progress, I felt it ended abruptly.
   
   The plot, I thought, was original. I had never read a story about a selkie. A selkie, Jesse, falls in love with our main character, Gwen--a normal human girl, when he comes to human form on land. This relationship happens so fast that I never felt a true connection between the two of them. Their love comes so suddenly that I couldn't connect to the emotions the characters felt. There was suppose to be mystery appeal to this book but it didn't give me any sense of suspense and was rather predictable.
   
   I wanted to like this book but I often found myself putting it down in favor of some other activity. In the end, I didn't really care what happened to Gwen and her relationship with her selkie. I'm sure I will have completely forgotten this story in days.



5. This was an incredibly well written novel and I couldn't put the book down!
   If your looking for romance with a twist of magic in it this is it!!

5 comments about The Face.

1. Synopsis: Martha Powell has dreams where she is drawing a silver line in her drawing pad, but the line starts seeping a dark red blood color from its sides. She doesn't know why, but she starts screaming in her dreams. She wakes up and tries to go on with her life, but it is hard because her friends aren't quite the same because of the incident. An incident which happened last Winter, that was so traumatic for Martha that she completely blocked it from her mind, and cannot seem to remember any of it. Her friends and family won't hint her or help her remember due to her Doctor's instructions.
   
   One day, Martha opens her drawing pad to draw a picture of herself for her portfolio. However, as if against her will, her hand starts to draw a face of a boy. Martha doesn't recall seeing that face, but she cannot seem to stop drawing him. Whenever she tries to draw something, she ends up drawing the face. She fears there is something wrong with her, and feels that the face is somehow connected to that incident. Martha slowly starts getting flashes of the incident that took place, but realizes that the danger is far from over.
   
   Review: I really enjoyed reading this book. I liked the central idea of an amnesiac girl trying to regain her memory, but then realizing that she was better off not remembering. It was interesting to see how almost all of Martha's friends were betraying her in a different way.
   
   Another reason why I enjoyed this book was because of how the story shifted as Martha regains her memory and realizes that she is still in danger, and tries to find out who is trying to end her life. Since I have read quite a few Fear Street books, I somewhat predicted who was responsible for what happened, but even I realized this only a chapter or two before the climax. There were some gory details mentioned in the book, but R. L. Stine mainly relied on suspense, which I thought was good.
   
   Overall, this is definitely one of the better Fear Street books that I have read.



2. Her friends say something terrible happened that day but Martha can't remember anything. They say her memory will return sooner or later. Then she starts drawing the face of an unknown boy. She can't stop it. Her boy friend admits that the boy is dead. Who is he? How did he die? And why are her friends acting so weird?
   
   A great Fear Street read.



3. This book was so mind boggilng. i loved it.... martha can't remember anything ! her friends won't talk about it, and its driving her crazy! please read if you havenit already!!!!!



4. I read this for an outside reading at my school and I just loved it! I didn't think that a book like this could be so confusing and good at the same time. But, then again, it is by R.L. Stine (the best author ever) and he is the guy to go to when you need a scare! I still can't get over the sad parts in this book, when Martha doesn't know anything about the holiday trip, or why she keeps drawing THE FACE of the boy she doesn't know. Of course, I give Mr. Stine a big whopping 10 for a great book in a great series. To fans everywhere: you can't read any of the Fear Street series without reading this! It's a must-read!



5. Martha has a memory problem because she can't remember anything. She keeps on drawing a boy's face who has been murdered. She wants to know about him and she finds out. She doesn't know why she draws the boy's face and then she finally knew. "the face that saved my life" and that's what happened.
   
   I really love this book because it was so good and pretty freaky. I hope you'll like this book because it is spspenseful. I have a good memory and I can remember things that happened and my past. Read this book to yourself and you'll find out.

5 comments about The Stepsister (Fear Street, No. 9).

1. RL Stine is a great writer and I have many of his books. This was great. I also have S. Sister two.



2. Synopsis: Emily Casey is really anxious to having her new stepsister Jessie and her new stepbrother Rich live with her. Emily and her sister Nancy miss their father who passed away, and are disappointed in having Hugh Wallner has their new father, because he is nothing like their real dad. Emily met Jessie a few times before, and thinks it would be fun to share a room with her new stepsister.
   
   However, things start going wrong from Day 1, when Jessie enters the house. Jessie acts very friendly and polite when their parents are watching them, but when she is alone in the room with Emily, she tears Emily's childhood teddy bear, erases her 12 page school report on Chile that Emily spent days working on, kicks Emily's dog Tiger because she hates dogs, talks with someone on the phone late at night, saying "I could kill her", and things just go worse from there. Emily cannot bond with Rich either because he always keeps to himself, doesn't talk much, and always has his head in a Stephen King novel.
   
   One day, when Jessie is not in her room, Emily reads her diary and is shocked to find out something horrible that Jessie did before she came here, and that she is really dangerous. Emily realizes that Jessie would do anything to take over Emily's boyfriend, family and her life in general, including harm her. Can Emily expose Jessie for her lies and stop her new stepsister from ruining her life?
   
   Review: I thought this was a well written R. L. Stine book. It had a well written plot, suspenseful characters, and some really creepy moments. The main reason I liked this book was because it was fast paced. In almost every chapter, something horrible would happen to Emily, and it just made me hooked to the story. Some parts were really creepy, such as when Emily finds peroxide put in her shampoo, making her hair disastrous, or when Jessie draws a bath for her, and Emily is scared to step into the water. The climax was thrilling to read as well, when the whole family go on the camping trip.
   
   The only reason I gave this book a four star rating was because there were some parts that just didn't make any sense, even though an explanation was given to them. For example, when Emily finds Rich in her room, lying on her bed, he gives her a reason as to why he was there, but it just seems like he had another motive, though this is not explained. Another example is when Jessie first moves into the house, and Emily hears her saying "I could really kill her" on the phone, why does she say that? Another reason why I was a little disappointed with this book, and this is just a personal reason, is because having read more than 20+ Fear Street books, I somewhat predicted who the reason person was who hated Emily, but I must admit, there were some parts which made me doubt my judgment.
   
   Overall, "The Stepsister" is one of the better books in the "Fear Street" series, and I am glad Stine made a sequel to the book.



3. Emily finds her new stepsister Jessie very annoying. She takes her clothes and lies, and then her dog is stabbed. Emily is certain that her stepsister is mental, but no one believes her.
   
   It wasn't such a bad book and I kind of liked it but I had some issues with it. The ending has kind of been done before in "Blind date" and "The new girl". And more inportant: The way the mother in the family reacted when the dog was killed! She told Emily to relax, like it was just a piece of ruined cloth or something, not a living animal! That was too much for my taste.



4. Emily and her sister Nancy live with their mother. Their dad had died, so their mom's new husband and son and daughter move in. After they move in, horrible things are happening to Emily. It seems as if someone is trying to get her. Are these tricks or honest accidents? Will Emily ever find out who is doing these things to her? Will her perpetrator be put to justice?
   
   This book is really good. R.L. Stine is an awesome author. R.L. Stine captures the youth and freezes it. I love the teen relationships and the teen fun times and just the teens' innocence that are in Fear Street books. Even though I couldn't stay a teen forever, I enjoy reading these teen books. Part of me is a kid inside that will never grow up.
   
   Even though I only gave this book 4 stars, that is the exception, not the rule. I usually give R.L. Stine books 5 stars. This book was good, just not excellent. (I give good books 4 stars; I give excellent books 5 stars.) This book is worth reading, so don't be put off by it just because I only gave it 4 stars. R.L. Stine does have better books, such as "The Babysitter" (I - IV), "Hit and Run", "The Rich Girl", "Cat", "Halloween Party". But again, this book is good. I just didn't quite feel the coziness and warmth in this one that I normally feel in a Fear Street book.
   
   Recommended.



5. R.L Stine has written one his best ever novels with terror filled pages ride of The Stepsister. Stine brings up many would be suspects for the crimes in this Fear St household and the reader will even wonder at times if being the victim is all in Emily (the main character)'s head. You will no doubt work out what is going on before it is revealed in the final pages but the fun is the thrill ride of an adventure in getting there. There's also a sequel The Stepsister 2 (Fear Street, No. 33).
   
   Emily is ecstatic when she learns she is going to have a new sister. After the recent death of her father her mother has decided to shack up with her new boyfriend who Brady Bunch style is bringing along two kids of his own to join Emily and her sister Nancy. Not much room in this household though, so Emily will be sharing a room with her new stepsister Jessie. Jessie immediately starts to become bossy and insists on taking Emily's bed for herself. Emily is to cowardly to speak up for herself and thinks she'll make the most of the situation and just live with it until Jessie rips the head off her teddybear and yells at her dog. Emily wants to believe the decapitation was an accident and get along with Jessie but it is not long before it becomes obvious someone is trying to harm her. A shower accident, her dog is dead this is just beginning of Emily's terror. She thinks Jessie wants harm her. Does she? There's also the self centered abusive to his son Rich, step father. Rich himself seems to be a bit of weirdo, spending his days reading Stephen King and nights being brought home by the police. Emily also is dating her sister's exboyfriend so maybe she holds a grudge. All fingers in Emily's mind however point to Jessie when she reads her diary and learns that her old schoolmates suspect Jessie of murdering a classmate. Will she be Jessie's next victim or be able to convince her mum and stepfather that Jessie needs to be committed?

5 comments about The Rich Girl (Fear Street Series #44).

1. The rich girl, was a very amazing book I read, I was extremely into reading it. So
   It starts off with a girl named Emma, and her friend Sydney, They find cash, out of no where, so they decide to hide it underground. Emma and Sydney promised they'd never tell no one, not anyone about it. Then Sydney couldn't hold in the secret no longer so she told her boyfriend Jason. Jason started to get a bit jealous, because they said they were going to share the money, equally, but Jason didn't like that. Emma killed Jason, but then Sydney started getting letters from someone with the same signature as Jason's handwriting, she tells Emma about it, but Emma doesn't possibly believe Sydney. One night Sydney hears and see's something coming to her room, and you wouldnt believe what she saw..
   
   This is an amazing book >;) so very talented, I love fear street books.. love..
   and yeah, this book was so amazing, and at the end, it was so shocking, and hilarious!



2. R.L. Stine's "Fear Street" is a classic series. He is one of those authors who's writing appeals to people of all ages, no matter how many years have gone by since the books were published. I for one, have been a fan of "fear Street" for many years now. In fact, I started with the ever popular "goosebumps" series, and then moved onto "fear street" and have been reading and collecting the series ever since. Even though I'm 19 now, I still enjoy indulging myself in these books. Sure, the storylines are a bit corny for someone of my age, yet I still find great enjoyment in reading them.
   
   I'm very fond of this particular book in the series, because it was the first "fear street" book that I ever read. Now that I've read the book numerous times, I realize that the plot is a bit ridiculous (even more so than some of the other books in the series) but there's also a great twist, and a really clever ending, which helps to make up for the semi-lame plot.
   
   The book is about two best friends, Sydney and Emma, who find a bag of money in a garbage can outside of their workplace. Sydney, the rich girl, is hesitant to keep it, but Emma, the poor one, convinces her that they should keep it, and they decide to hide the money and agree not to tell anyone about it until their sure its safe. Sydney breaks the agreement and lets their secret slip to her boyfriend Jason, and Emma becomes convinced that Jason is planning on murdering the both of them in order to keep the money for himself. In order to ensure their safety, emma and sydney agree to let Jason have a share of the money, but Emma ends up "killing" Jason after he tries to take the money for himself. Afterwards, strange things start happening to Sydney, and she's convinced that someone saw her and emma in the woods the night that they killed Jason, and she's also convinced that Jasons ghost is haunting her.
   
   But is Jason really dead...?
   
   If you've never read a fear street book, I do recommend that you read this one. Even though its not my favorite one out of the series, its the one that managed to get me addicted, so I'm sure it'll do the same for you!



3. Emma and Sydney find a duffel of money in the dump. Emma tells Sydney not to tell anyone but Sydney breaks her promise and tells her boyfriend about it. The ending is really funny!



4. This is the one of the many books of the Fear Street series, and it's really good. Fear Street is a series about scary and/or supernatural events that happen to teenagers in a ficitional town called Shadyside. In this book, two best friends find a duffle bag stuffed with thousands of dollars. The friend who comes from a wealthy family wants to turn it in, but her poor friend begs her to bury the money with her and keep it secret until they can spilt it up and share it. One tells her boyfriend, and tricks and twists proceed. This has a pretty good twist ending and gives a good taste of future books in the series.Pulitizer material it's not, but for young teens, or anyone wanting a quick thrilling read, this suits the bill just fine.



5. A rich girl who doesn't financially need to work, but only works so that she knows what it is like to have to work, and a poor girl who has to work find a bag of money. The rich girl doesn't need the money, but the poor wants it. They decide to hold it for a while and if nobody claims it, they'll keep it. The suspense is very thrilling, because you don't know if anybody will claim it or not. And I'm not going to tell because you have to read the book yourself and I don't want to ruin it for anyone.
   
   I've read many R.L. Stine Fear Street Books, and even though they are all good, this book is one of the better ones.
