by R.L. Stine
Well. That was quite possibly the worst book I've ever read. I never read Goosebumps as a kid, so I didn't know what to expect. I'm not generally into horror, but since it was a YALSA Teen Top Ten nominee, I gave it a shot. Considering that it's up for a pretty big award, I had higher expectations. ...

Well this was a disappointment. :( Claire was really bleh to the end, a whiny spoiled little brat.The deaths were just lame and comical (to be expected though).The story felt a bit dragged, I sometimes just skimmed pages because nothing happened except for Claire and her whining.

Boo to all you haters! R.L. Stine rules! Can't wait to read!Oh, what fools these actors be! It was a horror movie that turned into real horror--three young actors lost their lives while the camera rolled. Production stopped, and people claimed that the movie was cursed.Sixty years later, new actors ...

I'm calling it, time of death: page 110....This is a DNF for me. I have too many books and too little time to continue reading something so so not good.
Review to come.------------Where to even begin with piece of “literature”. The blurb painted the word picture that this would be a horror re-envisioning of Shakespeare’s best known comedy. I quote, “Get ready for laughter to turn into screams in R.L. Stine’s re-imagining of Shakespeare’s classic rom...
