Hey friends, don't forget our discussion for The Lost Girl is this Sunday! We're also starting book 4! Whose excited!?

Also, is this schedule working for everyone? Or do we want to pick up the pace since these are pretty quick reads?

@JenlovesJT47 @JoScho @MiyakoBunny @OnlyMeJustT @BookwormAHN @AndreaReads @TheReadingMermaid @whatshesreadingnow @MinDea

JoScho I don‘t know if I will make it this time around. My books are all packed up and I haven‘t read it yet but hopefully I will read it and can at least look back on the discussion. 6y
laundry_piles @JoScho no worries! Jump in whenever you can! 6y
Craftylikefox Well I know which book I will be starting tonight 😂 July got away from me! 6y

BeansPage Darn it I missed July. That was a rough month for me. I have a lot to read this month but I'm going to try to fit this one in. 6y
laundry_piles @Craftylikefox @TheReadingMermaid tell me about it! I cannot believe it's August already! 6y
tammysue I haven‘t got to it yet so If it‘s okay with you I would like to join in with September‘s book? Things will slow down for me by then with the grandchildren being back in school (I watch them during summer). 6y
laundry_piles @whatshesreadingnow of course it's ok! 6y
MinDea I flew through these books. 😲🤫 I enjoyed them so much!!! Pure nostalgia 💖 I got the new one and hope to read it soon! 6y
laundry_piles @MinDea I did! And pre-ordered the next two! 🤣 I was going to post about how I was a bad buddy read host and keep forgetting to jump on for us to discuss! I think we should all just finish them and then do one big discussion at the end at this point! Whoops! 6y
MinDea That's totally fine with me! I already finished them all 😆😆😆 6y
laundry_piles @MinDea I'm a SLACKER!! 😂👍 6y

laundry_piles Hopefully I did this post right but feel free to jump in! I personally loved this book more than the first one. It definitely felt more reminiscent of the original Fear Street books. 6y
BookwormAHN I thought this one was nuts, fun but nuts 😸 6y
Craftylikefox @laundry_piles @BookwormAHN I really enjoyed this one more than the first as well. Less cringe worthy slang. More monsters which makes it nuts! 😂This one was a bit closer to a goosebumps but with teenagers. So much fun! 6y

laundry_piles @Craftylikefox @BookwormAHN yeah definitely got the Goosebumps vibe too! Some of the characters really annoyed me though. Who was your favorite? Least favorite? 6y
BookwormAHN @laundry_piles @Craftylikefox definitely a Goosebumps vibe. My least favorite character was the psychiatrist. I knew she was up to something. I'm not sure who my favorite was. 6y
Craftylikefox That‘s a tough one! I like this main character better than the last story‘s. my least favorite... maybe Issac, he kept complaining about his band and I kept thinking well then practice more or do something about. 6y
laundry_piles @Craftylikefox I hated Isaac! He was very obnoxious character! 6y
laundry_piles @BookwormAHN the psychiatrist, yes! 6y
Craftylikefox @bookwormahn I thought the psychiatrist was terrible!! 6y
laundry_piles Did anyone else find it slightly annoying that Lisa was so naive about Nate and Saralynn? 6y
BeansPage @laundry_piles YES!!!!! It's like "Hello???" (Smacks her over the head with the book) 6y
BeansPage I personally thought the ending was a little more than cheesy but that's RL Stine for you lol 6y
laundry_piles @TheReadingMermaid so much cheese but that's part of the novelty 🤣 after all these years of writing, I'm convinced Stine does that on purpose now. 6y
BeansPage @laundry_piles Yes, it's now like his calling card or his trademark 6y
ads0123 I enjoyed this one a lot more than the first one! I was super suspicious of the psychiatrist from the beginning, too. Also, I don‘t think you could pay me enough money to go back to a house after 2 murders were committed basically on their front lawn. Just say no Lisa!!!! 6y
laundry_piles @ads0123 um right!?! Actually I'm not sure I would've even gone back after what happened the first night there!! 🤣 6y
laundry_piles Thank you ladies for reading these books with me! So much fun! Don't Stay Up Late was a good one, can't wait to start book three! 6y
RedxoHearts Goosebumps were my absolute favorite books growing up. I can't believe I never read any of his Fear Street books though! I'm going to have to get one to read one day 6y
laundry_piles @RedxoHearts oh they're a lot of fun to read. Cheesy and nostalgic but so good haha! Feel free to join in! The buddy read is VERY low key! 6y

KJHowe I simply adore Bob Stine. 6y
MinDea Is there discussions for the #FearStreet books or we just reading them and discussing as we all post? 6y
laundry_piles @MinDea there's definitely a discussion I'm just a major slacker because I got home super late from vacation last night! Haha I'll post something tonight after kids are in bed and anyone can jump in whenever! 6y

MinDea Oh no worries! I'm sorry! I didn't know you were on vacation. I hope you had a great time! 6y
laundry_piles @MinDea we snuck up to Maine for four days! No worries, I kept meaning to post something and then I'd get side tracked lol 6y
laundry_piles @MinDea and thank you! We had a great time! We were at my mom's :) 6y
RadicalReader @laundry_piles forever a lover of creepy and crawly and can‘t find a better match for those categories than a tie between Stephen King and RL Stine 6y

I can't say enough times how much I love RL Stine's writing. He is just an awesome writer.
I enjoyed this book very much and look forward to reading the next Fear Street installment.

laundry_piles Hopefully I did this right! lol 6y
BeansPage Lol I loved the book. Was cute & short but still creepy. Classic Stine writing 🤘🏻 6y
laundry_piles @TheReadingMermaid I agree, it was totally classic Stine. I felt like I was 10 again and it probably would've creeped me out then. A little cheesy now but I loved it 6y

BookwormAHN @laundry_piles @TheReadingMermaid I also loved it. Definitely classic Stine 😸 6y
laundry_piles Whose your favorite or least favorite character? 6y
Craftylikefox This brought me back to the classic Stine writing as well. There were some parts I cringed at. Usually when they used slang. The slang seemed more early 90s but it was supposed to be current day. This would had me on edge when I was younger. I enjoy taking that ride back. (edited) 6y
laundry_piles @Craftylikefox completely agree about the slang. I think I questioned once or twice when it was supposed to be taking place. 6y
laundry_piles I'm glad so many people still enjoyed it! 6y
JoScho Totally fun nostalgic read but I agree with @Craftylikefox about the slang and the dialogue in general was pretty rough but it was a fun read and I know ten year old me would have been on pins and needles while reading it. 6y
Craftylikefox @laundry_piles I am looking forward to reading Don‘t Stay Up Late! @JoScho Little me would have been very spooked by the story. 6y

If this isn‘t the most 20-teens dedication, then I don‘t know what is! This was a fun, quick read that gave me all the nostalgic feels. I devoured goosebumps and fear street books as a kid. It‘s super silly, and obviously not the best in horror, but I enjoyed the cheesiness.
