A total Shocker!!!

Wow, it's been so long since i last read this book (I rented it from the library or else i'd read it again.) I reccomend this book to anyone who enjoys a good thriller. You don't have to be 13-15 years of age to enjoy R.L Stine's fearstreet series. In fact, i'm 18 and i absolutely love him. I'll admit his writting is'nt as elaborate and detailed as other writers but that's what's so great about him. He gets to the point and in the process gives us a great story. The Step Brother is an absolute shocker. You'll be hooked from beginning to end. Especially the end. This book has got one of the best surprise endings ever (although with R.L Stine you usually come to expect surprises).

One of my favorite Fear Street books.

Sondra is an ordinary seventeen-year-old girl, or so she thinks. Then she allows her best friend, Mallory, to hypnotize her. She has a terrifying vision of burning alive, and then starts to have similiar dreams. She visits a psychic who says that Sondra may have died in a fire during a past life as a girl named Penny, and that her killer may be after her in this life as well. Sondra's boyfriend, Zach, thinks it is Sondra's stepbrother, Eric. Eric thinks it's Zach. And Mallory starts to act more and more mysterious. If Sondra doesn't find out the truth soon, she may die in this life as well. This was an exciting, page-turning book. Once I started it, I could not put it down. And the ending was the complete opposite of what I expected, which was good.

Fantastic

This book not only left you in suspence in the book but justlooking at the cover and reading the back made it a book that you justhad to pick up. I liked this book almost as much as I like The Bad Girl. Actually I liked them the same... you can tell by my ratings.
