About this audiobook
There's a new boy at Shadyside High School, and he's stolen the hearts of all the girls. Good-looking, athletic Ross Gabriel is the kind of guy that every girl wants to date-including best friends Janie, Eve, and Faith. They've even made a bet on which one of them he'll go out with first. Ross dates a lot of girls-and one by one, they're all murdered. It looks like going out with Ross means flirting with a gruesome and horrifying fate. So when Ross asks Janie out, she isn't sure what she should do. Will her dream date turn into a nightmare? When it comes to writing nerve-jangling thrillers for today's young people, R.L. Stine is the master. With true-to-life teenage characters and clever, hair-raising plots, his best-selling books have captured the imagination of young people across the nation and attracted thousands of reluctant readers to library bookshelves.

- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Possible spoiler alert:It doesn't take a detective to figure out that Ian was involved in all the murders. He also had a motive and was kind of creepy. The bigger question, however, is: what percentage of students live to graduate Shadyside High? Moreover, how can every book begin with students doubting that Shadyside and Fear Street really are synonymous with being murdered? Why would anyone live there? You'd think after the first few murders, everyone would just get out. Maybe it's because the majority of the residents are unbelievably hot.
