Fear Street is back!

Don't Stay Up Late: A Fear Street Novel - R.L. Stine

I received this book via NetGalley to give an honest review.

 

I grew up reading R.L. Stine books, I remember my first Fear Street book I read it was a present from my momma I think I read that book at least a dozen times and it never got old. So when I saw this book was up for requesting I wanted to give it a read. 

R.L. Stine has a great way of capturing your attention with his books that you can not put it down. 

Lisa is a normal girl who just moved to a new place and making friends. One night there is an accident and this causes her to seek help because now she is seeing things that are not truly there. 

With the accident happening her mom can not work because she is hurt so Lisa with the help of her therapist takes on a babysitting job. Where the job is located at is on Fear Street. Oh the dreadful Fear Street where all the bad things happen at. 

While working she is told to not let Harry stay up late no matter what he says. He is to be in bed early and Lisa tries her best to attempt this. This is when she encounters her first monster and soon the dead bodies come into play, poor Lisa knows she is seeing monsters but no one will believe her. 

The ending was one I was anticipating to happen I have to say it still had me wanting to read more.

The only problem I had with the book is the way Lisa's mother treated her. It was like she never wanted to believe Lisa or help her get better if that makes sense to those that have read the book.

 Would I read R.L. Stine's work again for sure and I hope to get my children into his books as well when they are older! They are not scary at all so they are good for those readers who don't like all the scariness in a book.
