Secret Admirer by R.L. Stine

sammah's review against another edition

3.0

Not my favorite Fear Street book, but it wasn't a bad one. An interesting twist, though for a very silly reason. Which....most of the reasons in these books are silly, and that's part of what makes them fun!

I can see why these are written for teenagers. 
There was barely a conclusion to this. It like just stopped. 
And I'd figured out about the "Secret Admirer" was about 1/4 of the way into the book.

Minus the abrupt ending, I liked this one. The suspense was real. The characters mostly not awful.

Lol okay, that was fast. I guess I would've liked it more if I was younger but I can't help but feel like the plot was a little basic? But like I said, it's made for children, so it served its purpose. Very very fast paced. I read it in one sitting.
