![]() ![]() ![]() But I was thinking "it's a buddy read and SURELY it can't get worse, and it won't take long" and my, how wrong I was. ![]() I'm sorry, it's the first time (and hopefully the last) that I seriously wanted to DNF a Goosebumps book. I can't believe I managed to finish this, but only because it's a buddy read. I never thought i'd give a Goosebumps book 1 star. I can't form a coherent review of all the things in this book that make me want to rage. The adult teacher is a cruel bastard adding to the fatphobia. It's like Stine wrote himself into a corner, forgot what was established, and I question how he thought this was ok for children with the extreme fatphobic comments and body horror?Įvery time I thought it couldn't get worse. It's like the kids, who KNEW this, completely said to hell with it even though things had gotten extremely bad. ![]() In the first book (spoiler alert) it's established that ripping up the pictures means everything will return to normal. Way to make any overweight child feel like shit, just give them this book (don't, please please don't). There is some intense body horror that is too much for a children's book. Most Goosebumps books don't have a sequel, a few do.and this one should not have been one of them. What the FUCK did I just read?! I have never been so angry at a book before! I've been angry yes, but the fact this is ment for CHILDREN makes it worse! ![]()
