Not bad, a bit of a thriller but I wouldn't say any of the Fear Street books are actually scary.

Took me longer than I wanted but I finally finished this one and loved it!
This one took a bit to get into, I wasn’t grabbed off the jump with this one but once they were on the island and the inciting incident occurs, I was locked in to the final pages.
I really enjoyed Della as a protagonist and found myself giddy with her budding romance with Pete. It was refreshing after The Surprise Party, where the boyfriend in that was a bit of an asshole. That romance really locked me into both characters and it was one of the aspects of the book that kept that final act so ridiculously tense.
There were several suspense sequences in this that had me gasping and sitting up straight when reading them. The incident obviously, but also a car chase later in the book, the photograph scene at Della’s house, and the final act had me by the throat.
This book rocks, it’s not my favorite so far. That title still goes to The New Girl (Which I have discovered is not a popular opinion apparently). But it’s right on its heels!

This one was so fun! I guessed the twist pretty early on but it was still fun to find out I was right! The characters were a little 2d and annoying but it got better as it went on.
