Ive heard good things

I bought this book because I always loved the franchise and heard this books was in the top 10 must reads. I'm excited to read it, my only issue is that my book arrived water damaged and orange. I'm going to try and save it, but be cautious buying acceptable copies, spend a little more for a good or new copy of possible

this book is sooooo good!

I am fifteen. And I just happened to pick this book up when I saw the front cover and read the title. It was really good. The horror and action was magnificent. Sometimes, people who read Stine books for a long time think that they know who the killer is going to be........... this time you wont. you will aboslutely NEVER EVER guess who the killer is unless you finish reading the book. And when you do find out who it is, you will just die in shock and amazement. It is sooooo good and it's definitely a page turner. READ READ READ THIS BOOK!

Prom Victims

Have you ever wanted to pick up a book that is filled with screams and thrills? The Prom Queen is one book you'll never forget. From the Fear Street series, The Prom Queen is a thriller you won't want to put down. Lizzie McVay and her friends: Simone, Rachel, Dawn, and Elana have all been nominated to be Shaydyside Highschool's Prom Queen for the Spring Dance. The Prom Queen is awarded a $3,000.00 scholorship to a nearby college. There is only one problem- someone wants all the money, someone who is greedy enough to kill. Simone disappears and Lizzie is devestated when her best friend Rachel is murdered. Now she is afraid the murderer will come after her too. Can she stop him before it's too late? I really like The Prom Queen because the suspense and thrills will get you on the edge of your seat. There was only one part I didn't like- when Lizzie had a nightmare. I think that R.L. Stine wrote a little too much detail. But doesn't he always? Just remember, keep the light on!

This book is really scary. You never suspect who the killer is. It starts when a girl is found in the Fear Street woods. . . dead. Then on eof the prom queen candidates dissappears. Then, another queen candidate is murdered. Then another. And another. Who is killing the prom queens? Read the book to find out.

Lizzy McVay is afraid that someone is killing prom queens.

This book was awesome! It was edge-of-your-seat thrilling! The characters were so real and believable, it felt as if you were part of the book.
