Perfect...perfectly evil
This book is one of those R.L. Stine books that aren't terrible and aren't perfect. A lot of parts were really stupid and boring. But towards the end, the book started to get much better. It has a HUGE surprise. There's only one problem with the end--it has a terrible epilouge.
R.L. Stine?
I am a 57-year-old man who has been reading and writing young adult novels for many years. "The Perfect Date" has the typical R.L. Stine zippy style, but out of all the books of his that I have read, this is the most unusual. It is almost as if it was written by a different person.
If you look closely, Stine's books are mysteries with logical explanations (even his Super Thrillers fall into this category.) "The Perfect Date" is the only book of Stine's that I have read that is pure supernatural horror. I have been viewing and reviewing horror films for the last seven years, but have not come across anything that has raised such hackles as "The Perfect Date."
