OK, I'll admit it. I purposely procrastinated finishing this book so I could include it for my 2015 Reading Challenge. I did it, and I have no shame! Now that I've gotten that out of the way, back to What Holly Heard. It was a pretty good Fear Street book, even though I was able to predict who the killer was.
Plot Synopsis: Holly Silva is the biggest gossip in Shadyside High. Her friends, Miriam and Ruth, have become accustomed to Holly's gossip, even though Ruth strongly disapproves of Holly's gossipy ways. But then, Holly hears something she shouldn't have heard...and now she and her friends know someone's deep dark secret. When Holly is murdered, Miriam and Ruth begin to fear for their lives. How far will the killer go to protect their secret?
The plot had some nice twists in it and the final confrontation was very nice. However, during the third act of the book, I already had suspicions that
But now, time for the negatives. I'm not sure if Holly was supposed to be horrible, but she really came off as that. Besides her gossip, she strung her boyfriend Gary along when she clearly favored Noah. She even went as far as to dress provocatively at a party to grab his attention. Oh, and did I mention that Noah has a girlfriend? Yeah, Holly's kind of awful.
But besides that, What Holly Heard was a pretty good Fear Street story. The plot was interesting, the twist was decent, and the characters were pretty interesting. I recommend this to any Fear Street fan.
Pros: The interesting plot, the good twists, and the depth of the villain's motivations.
Cons: Holly's bad characterization and the fact that you might be able to predict who the killer is.

Many of the same plot devices that Stine uses in his other books are found here, but they're done much better. Nothing (specifically the red herrings) seemed forced or unbelievable. The characters, most of whom I actually liked in this book (except for Holly ), seem reasonably realistic. There was only one part that I thought was incredibly stupid.

Miriam's best friend, Holly Silva, is Shadyside's gossip queen and resident troublemaker. Her favourite topic seems to be the relationship between good student Mei Kamata and bad boy Noah Brennan. A party held by Mei results in her mother forbidding Mei to date Noah, news which Holly happily spreads around. But then Holly claims to overhear Mei and Noah plotting to kill Mei's mother. And then Mei's mother is in fact found dead. Then Holly is found dead too! Miriam wonders whether the killer is Mei and Noah, or Miriam's abusive, hotheaded boyfriend Jed.
This is about as bog standard as Fear Street/90s YA horror gets. Yes, it's a fast read, and enjoyable in the empty way that fast food is, but it's just that little bit more mechanical, soulless and perfunctory than most others in the genre. This one blandly trots out every negative trope mockingly attributed to 90s teen horror (outright abusive boyfriends, ) with nothing new or terribly interesting to offer.

Holly is the biggest gossip at Shadyside High, just ask her two best friends Miriam and Ruth. Holly should be happy cheering on the Shadyside Tigers with her friends and devoted boyfriend Gary, but all she can think of is Noah...too bad he's dating Mei. But then Holly overhears Mei threatening to end her Mom's life...and when her mother turns up dead the next morning Miriam thinks it's time to pull in the authorities. Holly disagrees...then she ends up dead. Everyone is a suspect because no one liked Holly's loose lips.
This volume was a major disappointment. With only two deaths and then a hamster murder, this book was short on horror and even the suspense was poorly devised. The red herring was too glaringly obvious to be taken seriously and the big reveal was orchestrated too early on to be a shock. A disappointing addition to the series.

Wow… What a wild ride! 🫶 4.5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨
I’m still trying to accept the fact that I have never been deceived by someone this much in my life—especially by fictional characters. I thought I was this close 🤏 to figuring out the ending of this book. I hate to admit it, but I failed again. I felt all kinds of emotions while reading this book.
So far, this book is in my top 5 favorites from the “Fear Street” series.

Holly is the school gossip, in everyone's private business. Miriam's boyfriend is acting strange, violent and moody. Holly investigates but gets killed and Miriam tries to figure out who the killer is. Number 1 suspect is the boyfriend, Noah, because of his sudden bizarre behavior. He is borderline physically abusive to Miriam, she barely stands up for her self and keeps taking him back. Add in some poor, dead hamsters and the story is over. The only thing that stuck with me were the dead hamsters.

Etwas vorhersehbar, aber ich mochte die Charaktere diesmal besonders gern.

Ach Leute... vielleicht muss ich langsam einsehen, dass ich zu alt für die Reihe bin. Die Story ist einfach total bescheuert.

Holly is always the one with all the juiciest gossip at Shadyside High. Then she hears something horrible that just might end up being true, even though no one else believes her.
Holly's best friend, Miriam, does her best to figure out what really happened, but that may just put her in the same grave danger as Holly.
This was a pretty good one with a storyline that made it hard to guess who the killer was. It was also one of the more realistic and straightforward ones as far as the characters dealing with high school drama, gossip, arguing with parents and dating.
While I didn't really connect with the MC's too much it was still a fun reread that I really liked back when I was a teen.

This had a twist I wasn't expecting in it. Always nice when you can't figure out what is going to happen

Fucking WHAT
January 26, 2025
Oh wow, what a snooze fest! This is one where Stine clearly was not trying too hard. Forget the boring story and reveal-the real crime is i could tell while reading that this story was fleshed out because there wasnt much to write about. Sometimes the conversations are stretched really thin and repeated and pointless narratives are inserted to fill up pages. I hate when Stine writes like this because he has so many good Fear Street books. Even his style of writing is sloppier and choppy as the Fear Street series was coming to an end.

R.L Stine's What Holly Heard imposes the fearfulness of what goes on throughout Holly's high school days. Stine's What Holly Heard mesmerized me with its spookiness and scary style.
The theme of this book is to never go around spreading rumors because you never know what may happen down the road. Holly is the main character and is the gossip seaker who hears the latest news about everyone. Ruth is one of Holly's friends and is the most shy and doesn't say a lot. Miriam is also another one of Holly's friends. The setting of this book takes place at a high school called Shadyside High. The setting feels real to me in my perspective because it does take place at an high school and can relate in my life today. The plot around this story is that Holly has learned a terrible secret about someone and now her friends Ruth and Miriam know about it too. But someone, we dont know yet wants to make sure that she would never talk about it and is willing to go to any extreme lengths like threats or even murder to keep her quiet just so she will not say the secret. I think this book does relate to issues today because there is gossip and rumors that spread to one another everyday.
I think this book overall is a great book. Its a book that has you on your toes to keep reading and reading. I like how every chapter I read I determined something new so it always kept me wondering what was going to happen next. I recommend this book to anyone who likes suspense and surprise.

This was a perfectly ‘alright’ book. I thought it did a good job of making you question who the murderer was. Given how many potential enemies Holly had, it literally could have been anybody and I would have found it believable. Certain explanations could have used more work, but for the most part, I was happy with who the killer was. The most horrifying part of the book had to be . Those were clearly the actions of a psychotic person.
The only thing I really didn’t like was . The situation seemed a little too cheesy PSA for me, like those Lifetime movies they make with teenagers making bad life decisions.

Snippet: I loved this book! I feel like it had a different feel to other Fear Streets, but I can't quite put my finger on why. I think it just didn't seem as far-fetched as some of the others, maybe.
Miriam was a great protagonist, at least until the end when she stopped using her brain. I definitely relate to Holly with the whole gossip thing, which is probably why I liked it so much. I love that Miriam stood up for herself throughout the book, especially against Jed, but hate that she stayed stayed with him in the end.

One of the better ones! I thought I had read it before but it wasn't familiar. Surprisingly violent for a Fear Street book with twists I didn't anticipate. i did pre-guess the killer though, but ah well.
And...hamsters!

I love how the book is called what Holly heard and then the narrator is Miriam. Strange because the whole book is 2nd person so it was kind of hard to get used to. This is one of the most realistic fear street books I’ve read. The writing was pretty good, the characters had actual personalities. Always a good start.
The motive for the murderer was pretty weak. I had it spoiled on accident but I surprisingly I wasn’t thinking Ruth was the murderer. The whole hammer and hamster thing was brutal and disgusting. I hate when they add parts about barbaric killings especially a pet or innocent animal it’s horrible.
Jed, like all abusive Fear Street boyfriends was psychotic and had major anger issues. I would really like to know what steroids he was on because no steroid should make you so angry you start choking the life out of someone during a basketball game. Miriam was ok, but she was a too much of a pushover. In fact, in one of my favorite quotes,
“Don’t defend him. Any guy who will bury you like that isn’t worth it.”
“He just needs a little time that’s all. I’m not defending him.”
Uh no. Holly was 100% right. That is the sole reason I liked her. She was very selfish and kind of awful but she was a diva. Miriam needed to get rid of that sadistic creep. Luckily Miriam is a redhead so she got away with it (the first in a while).
Isn’t the best statement for murder-proofing yourself saying that you would commit murder? Apparently, like Mei said…
“I would kill for Noah! Don’t say a word about Noah!”
“You would kill?”
“I would, but I didn’t.”
I don’t get why she would try to prove she’s not a murderer then proceed to say that she would murder for her boyfriend, while he smiles creepily. Not convincing at all. I would honestly believe they were killers just from that interaction. I would’ve been much more satisfied if they were detailed they were just an annoying couple, couldn’t stand them. Unfortunately, the usual suspects are not killers, it was freaky Ruth who has no personality and daddy issues.

This year near Christmas, my brother found my old stash of Fear Street books, and I have seldom been happier by a book's (or a group of books') return! These books were my childhood; I have countless memories of reading Fear Street books on Saturday afternoons after my dad had taken me to Books-a-Million to buy the latest. I read almost all of them.
Yesterday, feeling sad remembering my father, who died only three months ago, and in need of something silly to read, I grabbed What Holly Heard from my bookshelf. I read the whole thing pretty quickly, and I loved it! R.L. Stine has a way of drawing you into the story and characters. I also understood anew why I loved these books so much as a kid: Stine wrote dialogue teens would actually say, having the girls all talk about boys and high school, while telling a good scary story. In the mind of a 10-year-old, high school is "so grown up," so reading these stories about 17 year old girls driving cars and dating cute boys while escaping a killer was thrilling to 10-year-old me.
The story in this one builds well. I really did not know how it would end and was surprised by the twist. Jed's situation is pretty obvious, but I'm speaking as an adult, and these books were meant for children. All in all, I recommend this one, and I'm excited to be re-visiting a much-loved part of my childhood.

2.5 stars.
I saw this at my local "Free Little Library" bookshelf today and took it home in a spell of nostalgia for my teenagehood. Finished it in about three hours and was quite disappointed at how boring it really was - I'd expected to be entertained by some fun trash but it left me luke warm. Maybe I only managed to find one of the duller (more dull?) ones in the series?!?
There were some of the usual stereotypes that you'd expect from a 1990s youth book (the only Asian character having two physician parents pressuring her to be the no. 1 bestest student EVAR, for example)...however! Two things really shocked me since they kind of came out of left field for me especially considering how boring the story was over all.
[TW: animal cruelty/murder, intimate partner abuse]
1.) Ruth killing her hamsters trying to frame Noah & Mei for it D:
2.) Jed pushing Miriam & almost breaking her hand with the excuse of being "unpredictable" due to being high on anabolics -.- and her being furious for like 5 minutes and then making excuses for him :(
(Love how he confesses the latter in the last three sentences of the book and them making up with him promising to "never take anabolics again" because obviously that makes everything good again. And surely, quitting an addiction from one day to the next is no big deal, you guys!)

I read the title to this R.L. Stine Fear Street book and just had to know what it was that Holly had heard. I think I was expecting too much. I felt like it was undeniable about what the big scandal was, but I was just disappointed. I mean, it was still a good read, but it was just okay compared to the other Fear Street novels that I have read. The ending was a little cheesy, and although I was surprised by who the killer was and the motivation, I still felt like it wasn't what I was hoping it would be.
I thought Holly would have been the main character; I think it would have been interesting from her point of view. I wanted to know more about Mei and her boyfriend, even in the beginning at the party; there was just something off about the way things happened with Holly and Noah, I mean, something was missing there.
There were some decent parts; I think Miriam's suspicion would have been how any reasonable person would react when there are so many bad things happening, everyone is suspicious.
I do think Ruth was extreme, but I have watched documentaries where people have killed for less. Holly was just... I mean, she was just a horrible person, but she didn't have to die because Ruth is a psycho. But what's done is done, it was still entertaining, I wish it was more than just okay.

Die fear street Bücher sind immer spannend, keine Frage, aber man merk doch schon dass es irgendwie immer das gleiche ist wenn man bis 5 Bücher gelesen hat. Zuerst verdächtigt man den einen, dann doch einen anderen, dann irgendwann wieder den ersten, und zum Schluss ist es immer eine Person mir der man überhaupt nicht rechnet. Trozdem mag ich es immer wieder eins so dazwischen zu lesen.
Hier geht es um Miriam und ihre zwei Besten Freudinen Ruth und Holly. Holly ist die Gossip Queen der Schule und weiß über alle neusten Gerüchte bescheid. Leider endet diese Neugierigkeit für sie fatal. Miriam und Ruth glauben dass zwei Schüler aus ihrer Schule waren. Und auch Jed, Miriams Freund scheint irgendwie verändert zu sein, war es also doch Jed der Holly auf dem Gewissen hat? Denn schließlich wusste Holly etwas über Jed das niemand wissen soll.

I had a lot of fun reading this book; there where genuinely tense/scary moments and a nice twist ending.
There was one thing that could've been handled better; Miriam's mom forcing her to go back to the school where she found her best friends body two days after finding said body just so Miriam could run into Mei and Noah. But that's the only thing that really annoyed me.
I didn't figure out that Ruth was the murderer, but I should've (especially since I knew pretty much immediately that she was in love with Holly's not so nicely treated boyfriend).

This one takes a while to get going. It only really gets good in chapter 7 and 8 when Miriam’s boyfriend gets a little too rough with her and Holly overhears two classmates plotting a murder. But lots of kids get mad at their mom and say they want to kill her. Nobody actually does it. But then this one does. And then Holly turns up dead, too. Murdered. Who was the murderer? And could the murderer be after Miriam and Ruth next because of what Holly heard?
I liked this one, but I didn’t like the smashing of the poor hamsters.
A chilling and mysterious read!

in 2013 my local library was getting ride of all paperback books and they had all the R.L. Stine / Christopher Pike books so I bought all of them and read them with a massive teen book marathon .. I really hope that a whole new generation of teens gets to fall in love with these books !!! as they are simply the best I loved all of these books in my teens .. :) and I really enjoyed going down memory lane re reading them as an adult ... :)

Overall, this is a good standard Fear Street book, but it's one of those stories that the more you think about the actions that happened you wonder if maybe there were no good or bad players. I feel the book misplaced who should have been the protagonist. Instead of Holly, she's treated as a side character that puts the plot in motion, but the person we follow doesn't hit home with the stuff that happens.
