I don't like it that much now, but it is a little better than Slumber Party. I also never cared for this book years ago. Weekend was Christopher Pike's second teen horror book. Additionally, I find a lot of the dialogue to be silly and uninteresting. It's hard to care about characters when one can't keep them straight. Slumber Party has too many characters who are introduced too quickly with inadequate descriptions. Pike's first teen horror books are weaker than his later ones. I never cared for Slumber Party years ago, and I still do not like it. The same group of friends was present when a terrible event happened years before. In Slumber Party, a group of friends spends the weekend in a house near a resort. Slumber Party was Christopher Pike's first teen horror book.
He also describes a short girl as looking like a hobbit. That sounds like something Pike would write. In her mind's eye, she could see rows and rows of bored faces. "Hi, my name's Mary Ellen and these are my good friends: Nancy, Angie, Olivia, Walt, and Pres! We're here to share with you the excitement we have for our fantastic football team!" On page 1, Mary Ellen worries about her speech. However, little bits of Pike come through at times. The book is unlike all of Pike's other books, since Pike had to follow the formula for the Cheerleaders series. The story follows Mary Ellen and the other cheerleaders as they experience romance, jealousy, and backstabbing. Mary Ellen has just made the cheer squad. In Cheerleaders #2, Getting Even, the school year has just started.
