Title: Son of Slappy
Series: Goosebumps Most Wanted - 2nd book
Author: R.L. Stine
Read Before: no
Comments: A new Goosebumps book featuring the infamous Slappy, a dummy who can come to life. Apparently this one is about the son of Slappy but the son is not really who you think it is (the cover illustration is a red herring). It starts off okay, it’s not very scary but it ends up going down a very cliché route in which a do-gooder is forced to do bad things and have people start to doubt him. The worst part is the ending where it doesn’t truly resolve the story and feels like it was cut off abruptly. It also doesn’t really live up to the name of “Most Wanted”, a bit disappointing but not a horrible book to read.
Rating: 6/10
