My Little Brother Got it For Me
I loved Goosebumps books as a child. When I was much younger, they even scared me a bit. Reading this one as an adult, it isn't as impressive. You see story mishaps, and it becomes painfully obvious that these are just for children. That being said, I still enjoyed this book. It was a great silly read, perfect for an end of the day break. I really liked how 'Slappy' would hop in every once and a while and give his own opinion. For a child who loves these types of books, it would definitely be a much higher rating. Unfortunately, as an adult, I would say my rating fits (maybe I was even a little generous). It wasn't written for us; we won't enjoy it as much. For nostalgic purposes I recommend it.

I received this book in exchange for an honest review. This was part of a young adult dystopian box set and I have to say that I am glad that I started with this book. I really enjoyed it.

This was an extremely quick read that kept me captivated for hours. I found myself invested in the characters. This novel is not your typical dystopian book. It deals with mind readers and a society that is scared of evolution. The fact that this was not a stereotypical dystopian really surprised me. I liked the characters and I liked the content. I'm glad that I was able to sit down and take time to read this young adult novel.

Ultimately, I enjoyed this novel. I will definitely continue on in the series and I am excited to read the rest of the box set.

Rather forgettable.
There are certain funny scenes in this movie but altogether for a movie about the zombie apocalypse it is rather mediocre.

I have a bone to pick about the scene where one of the younger characters makes out with an adult woman and this was set up under the pretense that she was teaching him to be more confident. However if this was an adult man kissing a 16/17 year old girl we would be canceling this movie. I don't think that's OK.

A lot of this movie is just shock value humor but certain scenes land better than others.

The characters aren't very relatable, they're your general stereotypes of people: the shy nerd, the awkward guy and the overly confident party animal.

All in all I'd say the movie was very forgettable.
