Stine Another of the senior books bites the dust. In this book we see the cliche of a summer camp introduced. A senior is working at it. The first two books are basically the summer before senior year, which makes sense because you technically become a senior at that time. It appears though that the real story doesn't start until the next book called "The Thirst" when the seniors it appears actually start to die and the mystery of who is doing it gets introduced (I read the blurb for the next book that was in this one, so shoot me). This book is very predictable with the horror aspect of it. You won't be left going "Oh I didn't see that coming." At least not if you are familiar with any other horror story in existence. There will be a part of you that yawns through this particular book in the series as it feels like mainly filler because they wanted it to be a year long series. The only nice thing is for most of the book you are laughing at the main character because you know that the troubled kid in the book is not the kid he thinks it is. It became apparent while reading this book that I have developed as a reader and understand good writing, which this is not. To fit into stereotypes of your genre isn't a pretty thing, which makes this a less joyful read than the first book in the series that actually spent time to introduce us to all the characters in a reasonable fashion (a simple party without focusing on them). This book had little redeeming qualities about it though. This book would have received 1 star if it hadn't been for the nostalgia of reading a Stine book. As previously stated I devoured these books as a child, but I recognize now that sometimes our taste matures. I have definitely found stronger and a lot better fiction than this. I am going to read the rest of the series because it has been on my bucket list for far too long and it is time to knock it off, but I hope that they are not all as painful as this particular book or I may have to kill someone myself. In Too Deep is the second book in the Seniors portion of the Fear Street Series. The book tells the story of Kenny Klein, who spends his summer working at camp, where he meets a girl he quickly falls in love with (despite already having a girlfriend) while also trying to figure out who is trying to kill him. In Too Deep is an entertaining book, featuring some ghostly events and providing a mix of romance and horror that should be on interest to teens. The story is exciting and is well-written while not being too long. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

Kenny Klein is too involved in his work as a camp counselor and his relationship with a girl called Melly to worry about the masked boy in his group or the attempts against his life, much less the prophecy that all the members of his high school class will not survive their senior year.

Following the "real time" commitment of this series, 'In Too Deep' is a summer story, and follows Kenny Klein as a counselor at Shadyside Day Camp. Kenny was one of the less douchey of the guys we met in 'Let's Party', but we see almost immediately that the dude is an authentic male of Shadyside and (possibly) too dumb to live. This, even though Kenny Klein is Marla Newman's biggest competitor for the title of valedictorian.
Kenny Klein thinks the only downside of his summer is that his girlfriend Jade Feldman is going to be in California doing a college-prep course and thus be unavailable for make-outs on River Ridge. He's still looking forward to his job as a counselor - he seems to think that the younger kids are going to be easy (ha!) - but he hasn't bothered to read the camper profiles his boss sent him to prepare. When Camp Director Craig reminds him that he has a camper with behavioral and emotional issues, Kenny lies and says sure, he knows all about it. Then he meets his campers and immediately pegs the boy wearing the ski mask, to disguise facial scarring from an accident, as the one to watch. You're an excellent judge of character Kenny.
His fine discernment also fails to pick up any clues when he meets the ethereal Melly Baker walking along the shores of Fear Lake. She's the crafts counselor and a total babe. Dana Palmer and Debra Lake keep reminding Kenny that he has a girlfriend, with little effect. Shadyside Day Camp has only one overnight a week, so there are assigned cabins, but counselors have a lot of down time. This allows us to check in with a few other seniors at Pete's Pizza, but this is a narrowly focused episode and doesn't do much of anything build off from where 'Let's Party' started.
The next book in the franchise I read and reviewed was 'The Thirst'
