The Fear

By Natasha Preston
The Fear by Natasha Preston digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

The instant New York Times and USA TODAY bestseller!
 
Hot on the heels of the New York Times bestsellers The Twin and The Lake, the undisputed queen of YA thrillers is back.
 
Don't be afraid. Be terrified.

It’s just a stupid meme that’s going around their small fishing town in the dead of winter—people reposting and sharing their biggest fear. But when her classmates start turning up dead—dying in the way that they said scared them the most—Izzy knows it’s no joke.
 
With each death hitting closer to home, Izzy sets out to try to stop the killer. Could her older sister’s friend Tristan have something to do with the deaths? He’s given her some strange vibes. Or what about his brooding cousin, Axel? But he’s in her classes at school. He’s not a murderer . . . is he? Izzie’s soon on a path that will lead her right to the killer . . . and her own worst nightmare.

Surprised Face with Open Mouth“I’m reviewing this book because the book has me thinking one thing but it was wrong and the person you least expect is the villain. This book was addictive, and I love the way that it’s was written. The book was written like I was right there with all of the characters. I would recommend this book to people who just don’t know what to read at the moment, so pick this book up and start reading!”

Thinking Face“i really loved the first 25 to 50% of this book as it was super interesting and a new story to me! quickly after that i unfortunately began to lose interest and the characters are not very likable. the plot twist and the actual ‘whodunnit’ was not satisfying to me at all and i couldn’t really see a reason for the killer to be it. it felt predictable in a way! it wasn’t bad, just didn’t love it unfortunately”

Surprised Face with Open Mouth“I absolutely loved this book! It was the second young adult/adult horror book I had ever read and it left me completely shook at the end I stared at my wall for an hour, but it was the kind of scared that felt good because of how amazing the book was written you could really feel for the characters. I could not have asked for a better first horror book to read.”
