meegzreads 's review for:
The Lost Girl
by R.L. Stine
ARC kindly provided through Net Galley, in exchange for an honest review
Growing up I loved both the Goosebumps and Fear Street books - I still have my collection at home. I was always keen to read another.
Now that I'm older though, these books have lost the appeal for me. The writing style is definitely suited to the younger generations in High School. I found it hard to believe the storyline and yes, I know its a horror story, but I just couldn't get into it the way some supernatural/horror books pull me in.
I also feel like there were some unanswered questions at the end - particularly what happens with Diego.
Don't get me wrong, I think this book is great for anyone who is younger and loves to read RL Stine, but if you're older and hoping for a blast from the past, it may not hold the same thrills as it did when you were at the target age of the audience for this series.
