Picked up this one and the third one a couple months ago from the thrift store and forgot about it until now! It’s the perfect time to start! Have you read this one? Is it good?

genuinely so many of you want to be leftist and "punk" and countercultural soooooo bad but you refuse to become comfortable with the concept of people taking drugs for fun because they like it and not because they were somehow tricked or forced into it without knowing what they were getting themselves into
you'll be like "addiction is a disease!!" but think you're better than those degenerate stoners because you only drink energy drinks and white claws and would never touch "illegal drugs"
many if not most drugs CAN be consumed completely safely with almost 0 risk to the user and even if that werent true and all drugs were extremely dangerous you still wouldn't be better than those of us who love doing drugs recreationally
lighten up and grow up. get offline, talk to real adults, and stop being shocked to discover that they enjoy doing stuff that adults do like have sex and do drugs and even listen to rock and roll

I think it's crazy the Fear Street books have basically no fandom. Like the book series has been around for over 30 years and a lot people talk about how they remember reading the books but there is like no fanart, fanfic, or fan discussion about any of the books. It’s weird because similar series to Fear Street do have fandoms, just not Fear Street. I really hope that the fourth movie will get more people talking about the books because they really do have some amazing characters and themes worth discussing. The best thing I can do for now is to just keep posting about this series, even if no one responds.

I’m pretty sure that The New Years Party was the first Fear Street book I ever read. It was a birthday present, so it’s fitting that I am posting this review on my birthday. The twist at the end has stayed with me all these years, but I recalled very few of the details. The New Year’s Party doesn’t have a wildly original premise. In fact, it bears a lot of resemblance to The Halloween Party. Both books contained way too many characters and suffered from having overly convoluted holiday-themed revenge plots. I really enjoyed the different timelines and the multiple twists at the end of the book. The revenge plot was compelling and the character motivations were solid. It was unfortunate that the books left some pretty glaring questions at the end, with a really cheesy closing line to boot. It was a frustrating book in many ways because it held some real promise in some parts, but fell utterly flat in others. I almost wish that Stine had taken this exact same premise and centered it on different characters. I want to tell you exactly who, but you’ll have to read below the jump for a spoiler like that. The New Year’s Party ended up being a mixed bag of good horror and familiar frustrations. I enjoyed scratching the nostalgic itch of re-reading this.
