The latest R.L. Stine suspense novel for children (and
those young at heart.) will
keep you up all night if you are not careful. There should
be no surprise with a
title like DON'T STAY UP LATE. It has all the spooky
elements that R.L. Stine is
known for so it will not disappoint those that grew up
reading his books.
The
suspense, interesting characters, and the surprise ending
that you didn't see
coming. There's no wonder that this man can still surprise
you with the turn of
every page. What I liked about reading DON'T STAY UP LATE
is that I found every
night I was promising myself I would stop reading at the
end of a chapter so I
could go to bed. However, when I got to the end, I had to
read another chapter.
Before long, you find yourself up way too late. And maybe
a little bit frightened.
In this story, Lisa Brooks is having nightmares and
hallucinations after suffering
from a wreck that she and her family was in. As she tries
to get better she starts
babysitting for Brenda's son, Harry. They live on Fear
Street and Lisa has been
warned to not take the job. But her family needs the
money. Things start to get
worse for Lisa instead of better. She is hallucinating
more and her friends are
being murdered. Is there a connection?
I love trying to figure out what will become of the main
character in suspense
like this. Is she really going crazy or is she not? You
had no clue to what was
happening next. When you thought you knew, boom, just like
that and you are
surprised! DON'T STAY UP LATE by R.L. Stine is a must to
read. I recommend this
in the evening if you dare! Just don't stay up too late.
R.L. Stine's hugely successful young adult horror series
Fear Street is back after almost 2 decades. Fear Street is
a
worldwide phenomenon and helped to kick off the young
adult
craze which is still going strong today. In the second new
book in this series, Don't Stay Up Late,
Stine explores the unbridled terror of a damaged young
lady
sent on a doomed babysitting job.
Ever since a car accident killed her father and put Lisa
and
her mother into the hospital, Lisa can't think straight.
She's plagued by nightmares and hallucinations that force
her to relive the accident over and over again in vivid
detail. When Lisa finds out that a neighbor is looking for
a
babysitter for her young son, she takes the job
immediately,
eager to keep busy and shake these disturbing images from
her head.
But what promised to be an easy gig turns terrifying when
Lisa begins to question exactly who—or what—she is
babysitting. R.L. Stine makes his triumphant return to
Shadyside in the new Fear Street book Don't Stay Up Late.
