Liberty Boston (93 KP) rated Clawdeen Wolf and the Freaky-Fabulous Fashion Show (Monster High Diaries, #4) in Books

Clawdeen And The Freaky Fabulous Fashion Show review.

My goodness, I forgot to review the rest of these!

Anyway, I liked the book. I loved reading about Clawdeen.

Like the other books before it, this takes place after Frights Camera Action (Brownie points)

The Wolf Family having a reunion which puts a lot of pressure on Clawdeen who's trying to balance family with her friends and hobbies. She admits in an entry early on that her family doesn't quite understand her commitment to her hobby & her friends and boy, oh boy did I feel that.

I literally have zero complaints about this book.

I do, however, wish these were longer. The story itself is 110 pages long. The rest of the pages are blank journal pages you can write in and a preview of Draculaura's diary but I understand why these are so short so it's okay.

Overall, I loved reading about Clawdeen and her life!

Kudos

Hmmm ... I'm not really sure what to say about this.

Other than it stars Nicolas Cage (who doens't go as overboard in this as he normally does), Jessica Biel and Julianne Moore, and is based on a short story by prolific sci-fi author Philip K Dick (who wrote works that become the basis for both Total Recall (based on "We Can Remember it for You Wholesale") and Blade Runner (based on "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep"), to namedrop but two), with Nic as a Las Vegas magician who can see no further than 2 minutes into his own future.

Except where it concerns Jessica Biel's character (who he has not yet met as the film begins).

Decent enough premise, then, with some decent enough action scenes - even if they won't blow you away - and a decent enough twist ending (even if I want to know what happens Next).

In fact, maybe that single word sums it up: Decent.

Not spectacular.
