I love any Fear street they can do no wrong. This one did not disappoint. I ended up reading this one physically instead of audio.Every time I read a fear street I am transported back to my childhood. No matter how corny the story I love it.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for an advanced copy of the book, in exchange for a honest review.

Thank you NetGalley for allowing me to listen to this audiobook.This is the 3rd book in the Fear Street Relaunch series and it can be read as a standalone.This book is darker and more violent than most of the other RL Stine books.

Apologies for the delay in reviewing here. I reviewed this other places and forgot to add a review on here. Here’s the thing, I am always going to read an RL Stine book. Always. This wasn’t my favorite, it wasn’t in the top 10. But, I loved it because I will always love the stories that transport me back to when I was a young reader. Thank you so much for the advanced copy!

I enjoyed reading R.L. Stine as a teenager and it would have been nice to have the audio books back then. I'm glad his books are gaining popularity again.

Many thanks to Netgalley and the publisher/author for providing me with an ALC in exchange for my honest review.

This book was exactly what I wanted it to be! I loved it. I will make sure to check out other books by this author. When I requested this I was just intrigued by the concept of it and I loved how it turned out. This story had a great plot and if you have read this and enjoyed it, This was so much. It was such a great story. I would say give this one a try. I will continue to follow this author. Way to go to this author for not letting me down.

I highly enjoyed the narrator of the audiobook. Kept me listening.

Thank you to Netgalley for providing me with an audiobook of The Lost Girl in exchange for an honest review!

The Lost Girl is, unfortunately, my least favorite of the three Fear Street Relaunch books I've read (the other two being The Dead Boyfriend and Give me a K-I-L-L.)

The Lost Girl plays around with a past & present format which is probably the one thing that I did enjoy in this book. The connection between the two time periods was obvious the entire time, so it didn't necessarily leave me wanting to know more & this ended up being kind of a bore.

Also 10 out of 10 did not care for the twist.

I'm still kinda Shook by a kill scene in the beginning & I don't think that'll be leaving me anytime soon so major points for that.

The Lost Girl was probably one of my least favorite Fear Street novels by R. L. Stine. The book isn't bad at all and surely kept my attention through the whole book. My only thing is that this is one of his few stories that's actually a little bit predictable. The only other thing is a friendship forming between two people (I won't say who because of spoilers) that didn't really make sense.
Other than those few things the story is still pretty good!

I am fairly certain I read every single R.L. Stine book of the 90s. Goosebumps, Fear Street, etc.... I was excited for the opportunity to read this. But I tried twice and just could not get into it. I switched and ultimately tried all three, but it didn't seem to matter. Since I did not make it past 10%, I did not post a public review. Thank you for giving me the chance.

Title: The Lost Girl
Author: R.L. Stine
Narrator: Brittany Pressley
Genre: Horror
Pages: 270
Duration: 5:03:16

I lived for Fear Street when I was teenager. I read most of them – so when I saw a relaunch of the series available for review on NetGalley, I jumped at the chance.

In this book, Lizzie Palmer is a new student at Shadyside High School. She is drawn to Michael, who already has a girlfriend. During a snowmobile outing, one of Michael’s friends dies tragically. And then his other friends begin to die while he gets closer and closer to this mysterious girl. Pepper, his girlfriend is convinced it is Lizzie but will Michael listen to her.

Three words to describe this book: Nostalgic. Gore. Quick.

Cover: I was a bit disappointed by the cover. The original Fear Street novels had a distinct art style. While this one is attractive, it does not fit with the original aesthetic.

Character Development: Minimal. When the murders start to happen, I knew little more than the character’s name and their gender before they were dispensed. Even the main character has little substance. There are also no adults and no reasonable reactions to trauma.

World-Building: Fear Street takes place in Shadyside, a cursed town where lots of bad things happen. I don’t think there was much world building or leaning into the mythos around Shadyside which was unfortunate.

Plot & Pacing: The pacing in this novel was great. The plot was pretty far-fetched and a bit formulaic (quickly killing most of the teenagers). I did like the historical element that they brought out which was a bit unusual for these types of books.

Narration: I love this narrator – Brittany Pressley. She did all three of the Fear Street books I reviewed this summer. She is pretty prolific, and I will definitely listen to her again.

Verdict: Disappointed. As a frequent reader of YA literature now, this book just did not cut it. It also makes me question some of my nostalgic memories about Fear Street.

I love R.L. Stine so much and this audiobook was just so fun… gave me nostalgic vibes and just absolutely had a blast.

*received for free from netgalley for honest review* well, R.L. Stine is still creepy as ever!! yikes what a creepy book to read when you live in the woods too lmao

This was a great audiobook. I love Fear Street It was my gateway to other Horror later in life. This was a great audio of a great book.

Ah, Fear Street, where adults are incompetent and children are malicious, overdramatic MURDERERS. Also where physics doesn't matter and if you can imagine it and write it down, it can be ridiculous and real.

Here you have man-eating horses and vengeance and actually gruesome death scenes. It's silly, it's overwrought, it's hilarious. These books are so clearly written by formula and it's great. They're not good by any stretch of the word, but they're fun, so it balances and half of the fun is actually making fun of the drama.

I read these books all the time as a kid/teen and they haven't changed which makes them perfect nostalgia food. I swear, if you want to make money, reboot something millennials loved (but don't do it badly, we still have taste) because adulthood is NOT as advertised.

This functions really well as an audiobook because of the silliness; I sincerely hope that the narrators (this one had both Brittany Pressley and Dan Bittner) were having a good time. They sounded like they did.

Honestly, don't read these for the literature, read these for the throwback feels. We need to get some Christopher Pike stuff happening.

I received a copy of this audiobook for free from NetGalley and Macmillan Audio in exchange for an honest, voluntary review.

I tried very hard to get through this audiobook, but I was simply bored. I just didn't care about it and unfortunately I DNF'd it. I hate doing that with books I've so kindly been approved for free from NetGalley, but if I'm not enjoying something I won't force myself to finish it.

Disclaimer: I was given an ALC of this audiobook from Macmillan Audio via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

I had a hard time getting into this book because of the narrator. It would be good for middle grade readers that want a scary story. As someone that does read a lot of thriller and horror books, this was very predictable but it probably won't be for a younger reader. I would recommend this as a good scary book for the recommended age group.

Again, classic R.L. Stine. Thank you for allowing me to listen to this. I wasn't a huge fan of this narrator, but I am very picky about my narrators because I listen at 2x speed.

I found this book to be okay. I know it scared more towards younger kids who like horror but it was very predictable. The going back and forth between times made it very easy to realize that what was going to happen was going to happen. I think that if someone likes RL Stine and these books that they will enjoy listening to it. The narration was really good and the pace moved decently

Growing up, I loved the Goosebumps books. I had never read any of the Fear Street books, but had since heard about them. When I saw The Lost Girl, I was curious and drawn in by the description. While I did not dislike this audiobook, it was not my favorite. It was more the story itself and how it played out instead of the writing that I was not a huge fan of. I think my biggest issue was that the story felt a little disjointed. The sections of past vs. present didn't seem to belong in the same book. While they were tied together in the end, so much of the book was spent not seeing really even many hints of that connection that when it was finally made, it felt a little like a let down. I was mostly annoyed with the characters and their decisions toward the end, rather than feeling the tension. The description also seemed a little off to what actually happens in the story.

On the positive side, the writing was great, as I have come to expect from other R.L. Stine books. The characters were interesting and the narration for them was wonderful. I am definitely curious to read other Fear Street books. This one was just a little "meh" for me.

This was my first Fear Street book, and it was so much fun! While I was an avid reader of Goosebumps growing up, I never actually ventured into this series, and am so happy to be discovering it now as an adult. It's the perfect amount of suspense, thrills, and chills that I was looking for!

This story is a fast-paced thriller with a little bit of time travel, and a whole lot of violence. Our main character, Michael, finds himself caught up with a new student at school, Lizzy. She's very forgetful, always lost, and needs a lot of help. While he's trying to navigate being her friend, an accidental death starts to haunt him and his friends, literally. Could these recent paranormal events be linked to Lizzy's appearance in town? Dun dun dunnnn...

While I found the plot to be incredibly predictable, I still had so much fun watching it all play out. There were also a couple surprises twists at the end that tied in some family history, which was a nice touch as well, bringing the entire story together. I really enjoyed this book, and am looking forward to reading more Fear Street books soon!

I'd recommend this book to anyone who grew up reading R.L. Stine, or wants to explore his world of books! It's also great for those looking for a teen thriller with a bit of a nostalgic feel.

Thank you so much to the publisher, Macmillian Audio, for a copy of the audiobook via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
