I was very pleasantly surprised by this one. I actually quite enjoyed it, and I wasn't expecting that sort of ending. Well, I expected part of it, but not the unveiling. I don't know if I just wasn't paying attention to clues, but the unveiling actually shocked me. Stine's writing in this one was better than most, too. Which was nice.

I immediately disliked Emily after she opened her mouth about the dog that's in this book, but beyond that, I don't have much else to complain about. And me disliking Emily is a personal opinion that doesn't really reflect the rating.

This was my first Goosebumps as they came out long after my time. I would have devoured these as a kid. Fun read.

Obviously the hermit couldn't be the werewolf, that was too obvious, but I thought it was Cassie... Fail!

Oooo that one surprised me a bit, I will say.
I have decided to read many of the Goosebumps books this year, as I only read one or two of them as a kid, but enjoyed the series on TV when it came out. I am making up for lost time, I suppose, but it will be fun.

This book is about a family that just moved to Florida near the swamp lands. Grady and Emily have scientist parents who love working on experiments while studying swamp deer.

Grady gets a new dog he names Wolf. There have been murders around the area, and many people think Wolf is responsible for it, but Grady promises his dog would never do such a thing! He believes there is a werewolf out there!

One of my favorite childrens books. This is how you scare a little kid with werewolves.
