Fear Street: Secrets-The Lost Girl
The title of my book is “Fear Street: Super Thriller: Secrets - The Lost Girl”. It is a fiction, and horror book by one of my favorite authors, R.L Stine. This book has exactly 261 pages. The main characters of this book are Michael, Pepper, and Lizzy Walker. ( Also, some other characters in the book are Kathryn, Diego, Gabe, and Angel who Michael and Pepper’s friend). One of the characters of this book is Michael and the book is in his point of view. Michael is a very relaxed and easygoing, and curious character. He is very curious because when you read the first part of the book, he sees a very weird, and mysterious looking girl (Lizzy Walker) walking around and is very determined to find out where she came from and what she’s about. Next, you have Pepper, and she is a very perky redhead, who always suspicious, fiery, and …show more content…
Revenge is the theme of this novel because the whole point of the story was for Lizzy to get revenge on Michael because his grandfather killed her dad.As the book reads, “He followed me to another time. And he’s been helping me ever since we arrived here. Helping me get my revenge.” This means that Lizzy is starting to tell Michael the truth and to help him understand what is going to happen to him. Also, revenge is the theme of this novel because if it wasn’t for Lizzy to get revenge on Michael then there wouldn’t be any suspense in the book. In addition, the reason why I chose revenge as the theme of this book was because, without Lizzy wanting to get revenge, then there wouldn’t be a way for the characters to interact with each other and for the reader to have entertainment in the book. The message the author is trying to say in this novel is that not always the people you meet that is new to you is not who they always seem. Also, to be careful because not all the time people are going to be who they say they are. ( Quote from pg. 249, and last page of chapter

    The theme is the brutality of war. When the college friends were discussing about the war they’re about to take part in, Kropp said “Two years of shells and bombs a man won’t peel it off as easy as a sock” (Remarque 87). This shows the brutality of the war because it describes the effect the war puts on people is not easy to forget and for many, it’s permanent. As the friends were taking turns discussing war, Albert explained his view saying “The war has ruined us for everything” (Remarque 87). This shows brutality of war as well because it shows how broad the effect war is on people’s life. The theme of this book makes it a good book because its outcomes relates to the wars going on around the world right now. And it has important message/lesson on life in the front in the Great War, instead of just viewing the honor/patriotic part of the war it mainly focused on a very important part; fear and pressure. Thus the theme of this book is the brutality of war because of the characters description of the life at the front.…

    In 1956, a woman from middle class Manchester, New Hampshire wrote a book that shocked the nation. At 32 years old, Grace Metalious wrote the blockbuster novel Peyton Place. It transformed the publishing industry and made the author one of the most talked about people in the nation. Metalious wrote about incest, abortion, sex, rape, adultery, repression, lust, and the secrets of small town New England, things that were never discussed before in conservative America. She interpreted incest, wife beating, and poverty as social failures instead of individual flops. When Metalious published Peyton Place, the country was in the grasp of a new wave of sexual panic. The book turned the "private" into the "political." The avant-garde disturbed the…

    The action in this book is very suspenseful. For example, in one chapter the main character is alone in her deserted coffee shop, while her grandfather is asleep upstairs. Two adult thieves came in and Mattie hid. They looked around and shoved many of her special family heirlooms and other items into their big sacks. During this, one thieve almost cuts her with her grandfather's sword from the war. She comes out of hiding and runs. They catch her and tie her up. Her slap her to try and get her to spill were the coffee shop earnings are hidden. Her grandfather awakes and comes downstairs with a gun. He threatens to shoot and does, but the thieves dodge the bullet. Grandfather is thrown to the ground because of the force of the shot. One thieve runs away and the other goes and beats grandfather up. While this is going on, Mattie grabs her grandfather's sword and cuts the thieve on his shoulder. He cries out in pain and runs toward the door as Mattie chases after him, shouting some foul words the author unmentioned. After running a few blocks, she figured the thieves were long gone and rushed back to the coffee shop. To me, this scene was one of the most intense out of the whole book. I think it really does show how powerful this book is and it is packed with a lot of suspense. The interactions between the characters also made this book compelling.…
