According to Stein, it's a gimmick. He's introducing his work after years, so this is his way of bringing new readers in.

How do we receive notifications? I never got any for this thread and I started it.

I love how short they are because I can read several in one day. It's on Scribd, so it's like Netflix, but you binge on books.

The Fear Saga is my absolute favorite. There are plotholes, but there's this one page website that created a timeline for most of the fear street books.

No-How do I do that?

Here's the timeline-I started re-reading out of my Scribd order so it makes more sense to me.

Fear Street Saga

My local library stopped carrying almost all of Stine's books. Even Caroline Cooney only had "The Face on the Milk Carton". Apparently, these books aren't coo; enough anymore, so they've all been shoved on a bookmobile.

I'm in the process of trying to buy all of the Goosebumps books so I can re-read them again.

I love how short is is, because you can just speed through them. I read The Face On The ilk Carton in like, an hour. If it was an ebook,it would be even faster.

Thanks for the link. I know the feeling of speeding through shorter books. I re-read a teen love series this summer, burned through at least 2 a day hehe.

I love that too! I once read four of the Goosebumps series in a day because they are so quick.

I wouldn't mind reading them again. Maybe I'll even check out the fear street.

Anyone going to see the Goosebumps movie?

Fear Street is a good series. Its more teen based, but they are pretty great. I'll probably see the new movie.
