Rating: Summary: The scariest book ever! Review: This book was awesome! Every chapter something new happens that makes you wonder what will happen next. This book is very descriptive giving every possible detail imagined. I highly recomend this book to anyone who is in love with horror books or just enjoys a good scare every now and then. This is a must.
Rating: Summary: Stuck With The Kids Review: This is one of those books that leaves you wondering what to think of it. The story hooks the reader from the beginning, propelling them through the remainder of the book despite how unsatisfying the book may get.
You get your taste of blood, gore, and profanity, and that is exactly where the problem with it lies. The book follows the same formula of Stine's young adult novels, an edited version could even pass as a Fear Street book. However, one gets the feeling that Stine's foray into the world of adult fiction is simply so he can indulge in his desires to add a little spice to his works.
If you've read all the best-sellers and want something to tide you over until Stephen King's next novel, you may want to give this one a try.
Rating: Summary: o.k. read Review: The book was alright, but I think R.L.Stine is still in that Goosebumps mode. Like most Goosebumps and Fear street books, I have found that Stine has the tendencey to have a pretty good plot to the story but he doesn't seem to know how to form anything out of it. The ending had an interesting twist to it but he's done it so many times that I felt like I had been ripped off and he was too lazy to finish it and just...quit. He's always ready for a sequel so he can make another buck. I hafta admit that there was plenty of gore in it, more than some horror novels (or get a job in horror movie writing which have the tendency to repeat themselves, too). I guess I've read too many horror books to be satisfied
Rating: Summary: ATTENTION GRABBER Review: The book had a great twist in the ending, It keeps you on the edge of your seat!
Rating: Summary: One of the Best Books I have ever read Review: In this book R L Stine Lets his readers know that he can go beond the limits of some stupid teen novelist. I pray that he writes more for the adults in all of us
Rating: Summary: Very, Very Good Review: I thought that it was a very good book. Just like R.L. Stine's Fear Street series, very supensful, and very descriptive
Rating: Summary: This is a riveting book comparable to Clive Barker or King. Review: This is a riveting book comparable to a Clive Barker
or Stephen King story.
There are many guessing games thrown at the reader
as you try to imagine whether this is a werewolf story
or if it is just a deranged maniac on the loose.
The horror scenes are some of the most shocking that I have encountered.
I would recommend this book to anyone that enjoys
courting the possibility of nightmares and sleepless nights.
Not for the squeamish.
Rating: Summary: Wow! Classic Blood and Gore Review: Even though my children are not at the age to be reading the ever popular Fear Street series, and I am
certainly a bit old to be reading them (or so I thought!) R.L. Stine's reputation as a teen/youth writer drew me instantly
to pick up his adult novel, Superstitious. Immediately, after reading the first chapter, I was hooked. I dropped the book and ran to tell my husband about the grotesque images and wild stories. Any book that has eyeballs plopping out onto the pavement within the first few pages has got my attention!
It has been many years since I have read such a graphicly profuse book! But I loved every minute of it. I am in my late 20's and still love
loud obnoxious music and obnoxiously horrid horror movies, as well. Why not sit down with a gruesome book, as well! I am looking forward to any
more adult books that R.L. Stine would like to unleash! I do mean unleash! The story line of this book is plausible, easy to follow and a very good read. There is never a boring moment. The characters all have their
oddities, you never know who "done it". A beast has been unleashed, and it's closer than you think. They all are suspicious though......
Terror is very much alive in R.L. Stine's Superstitious. Take it for a ride
Rating: Summary: WOW...a Great book! Review: When I heard of this book I ran out to read it. I found out that it was quite old, but that didn't matter to me I loved this book! I have been an R.L. Stine fan since I could first read I actually think I read all of this books but the newer ones. So I was thrilled that I found an adult one. It was just like his YA books it sucked me in with the plot and when I would put it down I would think of a twist I had read and pick it right back up again. It was an excellent, well written book. I personally enjoyed this book a lot and actually put off my college work just to read it. I recommend this book for anyone who likes great suspense, horror, and an awesome plot. This would be a great movie if they made it-long as they stay true to the book. I also recommend this to anyone who loved R.L.'s children's books as you will not be disappointed by this one.
Rating: Summary: Wow Review: The opening of this book is excellent.. the story, the plot, the suspense.. everything.. I could not put this book down, except when I had to sleep, and I took it to work and school with me. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is a fan of stories that grab you, intrigue you, and ultimately scare you, with an ending that makes you say.. "Wow.." Also to fans, and soon-to-be fans of R.L Stine who have read his fear street books, and so on... His entrance into adult fiction is applauded
