![]() Heather fantasizes about murdering her Uncle James in various ways, from letting him freeze in the snow, to tossing him off a roof. ![]() We open on a familiar scene to any Fear Street reader. Like with the cover, it’s minimal, but that makes it good. Short, sweet, sinister, gives nothing away. TaglineĪlso a good tagline! Dang, this book is killing it. I think what sells the beheading is the scarf standing just above, hinting at what would be a neck otherwise. The headless snowman is a cliche but good image, and the footsteps leading to it hint at something sinister. I’m a little disappointed I could only find the high contrast images of it, because I feel like the softness is lost, and that’s part of what sells it. This cover (borrowed from YA Revisted) is actually very good. (One day I may have to reread all of the Last Vampire series, but saints help me on that day.) The Cover ![]() So today’s sampling is not from Fear Street, but rather from the Point Thrillers series, which had a number of YA horror writers submitting books for it, including my second fav Christopher Pike. ![]() Luckily, I work in a library, and just about every day we get book donations, and sometimes an R.L. I was trying to figure out what to do for the last update in December, especially since last year I burned through the best material. ![]()
