4.0 out of 5 stars Someone hates Josie..., January 26, 2004

This review is from: Broken Hearts (Fear Street Super Chillers, No. 4) (Mass Market Paperback)

Josie's life has never been the same ever since her twin sister Rachel fell of a horse and got brain damage. But now Josie's life has changed even more. Someone is sending her threatening valentines. Josie hopes these valentines are just a prank. They're not. There really is a Valentine's Day killer out there who wants Josie dead.

I would've given this book five stars except for two reasons. The first one is that many questions are not answered at the end of the book. The second one is that any R.L. Stine fan knows that the obvious isn't the killer. The killer is pretty obvious, although they're not the number one suspect. If you ignore all of that stuff, the book is very good. And don't read the book because the summary on the back seems interesting. It's very misleading. If you read the book, you'll know what I mean.

Oh, and there is a short cameo by Cory Brooks. Cory starred in "The New Girl," the first ever Fear Street book.

This review is from: Broken Hearts (Fear Street Super Chillers, No. 4) (Hardcover)

It's the best book I have read so far.I have read a lot of R.l Stine books but this one is the best.Even in my wildest dreams I couldn't think......to be the murderer.I really hated Josie for ruining Rachel's life and so did someone else . After reading this book I found out that my nails weren't at a good shape cause I kept biting them.All Fearstreet fans should read this.
