Silent Night

Obviously I've been on a Stine streak this year, but this was on my list for this year before the collecting began!
Happy holidays—You're Dead! is obviously one of the best lines imaginable, so that should sell you without reading further. There's another two of these and they only get funnier. 
Honestly though, this one took me a while to get into, and to get through. I thought I'd really enjoy the young adult writing more as opposed to the middle grade, but there was something off a little bit with the pacing. 
Other than that I enjoyed this one. A rich girl with a bratty attitude angers just about everybody she meets. So when these creepy, scary pranks keep arriving, and then somebody turns up murdered, the holiday horror is turned up. 
Definitely a decent amount more going on in this than a GB book. More threads being weaved, more characters, and a heightened mystery. 
Still a 4/5* for me. 

This was not terrible! I don't think I've ever read R.L. Stine, except for his short fiction. I did expect supernatural elements (denied!) and I loved to hate Reva. What a bitch! Literally, nothing she thinks is funny is actually anything but mean. Bored rich kid.
However, we have a needle in the lipstick (ew!), a bottle of blood, and a dead body wrapped up like a present. My favorite part was when Hank explained why he felt sorry for Reva.
