So you think with this book, it's a case of "Reader BEEware"?

...Someone had to say it. Well, maybe.

I don't Beeleive it!
Another horribley bad book from R.L. Stine.

Troy, I have BEEn a fan of yours for quite some time now, and I have loved your writing.

Anyway, when The most definately dreadful Goosebumps: horrorland series comes out, will you do reviews of those?

Another hilarious entry. Glad to know you're a Arrested Development[2] fan. Did you know they're making a movie?

Yes and one time I sat behind Michael Cera and his girlfriend at TGI Fridays. This was before the whole Fox Searchlight thing,[3] otherwise we would have had much to discuss over Jack Daniels wings.

I will definitely be doing the Horrorland books (and based on the sample chapter posted on the website, looks like more of the same from Stine), but not until after Series 2000-- maybe. It might be hard to resist tackling them sooner. We'll see.

As for Give Yourself Goosebumps, I've been threatening since I started the blog to do at least one of the books and outline every possible outcome, but that would require far more energy than I'm willing to exert right now-- maybe in a few months.

And as a special treat for readers of the comments section: the Ghosts of Fear Street series is also on the horizon.[Note 1]

Notes[edit | edit source]

  1. Troy completed Series 2000, but he abandoned HorrorLand after the first book. He never got around to the other series he mentioned.
  2. Troy would ultimately redeem himself by making a callback to "BEE THROWING" in his review for Return to Ghost Camp at the end of the year.

References[edit | edit source]

  1. Referencing drone bees.
  2. A sitcom.
  3. An actor who appeared in Arrested Development. Troy also alludes to his review of The Cuckoo Clock of Doom, which was supposedly sponsored by Fox Searchlight to promote Juno, which Cera also acted in.
