samiism's review against another edition

One of my favorites. I used to bring this book with me to school so I could read it on the ride home. Kelsey's bull-headedness lands her in trouble with Madame Valda. She has a curse put on her and consults gypsies to have it removed. She nearly loses her life acquiring insects and a jellyfish, which she eats, only to discover that she was still doomed. What a fun read this was.

It says on the book's home page that this was co written. Maybe the second name is the sketch artist instead of a co author. Nevertheless it doesn't feel like a Goosebumps classic.
Too many uselessly emphasized short dramatic sentences that are where they shouldn't be. At one point I was curious of how the story would be stretched, but beyond that I had little desire to read. There are icky bits, but not ghoulish bits. This could have been written by anyone.
Drew and Kelsey might have been inspired from real kids, but they aren't real even on paper. I really missed the banter and playfulness from the first third of the story. Not all Goosebumps story must be alike but this one offers nothing much. One star.

Fear Street # 63
Oh no! This 'Ghosts of Fear Street' has a gem of gross-out horror in it, but the plot revolves around our cousin protagonists running afoul of a Romani fortuneteller. Cascone, the ghostwriter for this one, does not use Romani and makes some statements that are pretty offensive. I know there are those of you out there who may think I'm being over-sensitive and that it's not a big deal, but anyone can play the "Is it appropriate?" game by replacing the g-word with any other minority or ethnic group when it comes up in the text. Does it make you flinch? Then it's not okay.
The book only had one decent scene in it anyway, so it's no great loss to skip this one.
