FEAR STREET! Ah, the books that shaped me in middle school. I loved the Goosebumps books when I was elementary school so much that I had to segue into the Fear Street books. I can't believe this book was written in the 80s. 1989, to be exact. This book came out the year I was born. IT'S 25 YEARS OLD. Insanity. And it still holds up today. Fear Street is a series by Stine that centers around a street in the town of Shadyside called Fear Street. The street is known for unexplained mysteries, murders, and other spooky things. The New Girl is the first book in the fun and freaky thrillers. The New Girl follows Cory Brooks as he falls in love with this girl, Anna Corwin. Anna is stunning, with eyes as blue as the ocean and golden blonde hair. But she is also very pale. As pale as a ghost, some might say. Actually, she is one! Well, she would be one. See, Anna is actually dead. In a fit of jealous rage, her sister, Willa, pushed her down the basement stairs. It instantly killed her, of course, and everyone is naturally crushed by the fact that shes dead. Well, everyone except Willa. In a traditional Stine plot twist, we find out at the end of the book that Willa is actually pretending to be Anna (you know, mannerisms, clothes, calling herself Anna...) and is completely cray cray. I mean, of course she would be crazy, I mean SHE PUSHED HER SISTER DOWN THE STAIRS. No sane person would do that I mean, get real. The Fear Street books are great because they are more sinister than the Goosebumps books. More raw, if you ask me. I'm pretty sure you'd never find a jealous sister murdering her sister by pushing her down the stairs to get everything she ever wanted in Monster Blood 2, would you? Yeah, didn't think so.

This book was about a boy named Cory, who lives in Shadyside and goes to Shadyside High. He sees a pretty girl, who's as pale as a ghost, named Anna. He is soon attracted to her and wants her. As soon as he meets her, Anna disappears. The only thing Cory knows about Anna is that she lives on Fear Street, a street that's spooky and a little haunted. After her disapperance, Cory channges because he could not stop thinking about her, losing a lot of sleep, and leaving his friends to look for her. He becomes determined to find her and find out what happened to her and her secret. I thought that this book was overall good because it kept me wanting to find out what is happening to Anna. I enjoyed reading it and I think that these Fear Street books are interesting because they keep readers on the edge and I felt that it was one of those page-turners. I would recommend this book or series to anyone who likes R. L. Stine or likes to read mystery books.
