This was a weird ass book. One thing about weird ass books, though: I love them! 🤣

You grew up watching Mister Magic on the little black box in your living room. Couldn’t sleep? Even at two o’clock in the morning, Mister Magic was on. He sang you silly little rhymes that taught you how to be a good little boy or girl. And then, suddenly… Mister Magic and his circle of six friends were gone. They vanished without a trace. You were all alone. 

What happened to Mister Magic? I hated the creepy house in this book!!!! It had six identical floors with no doors and a terrifying basement. 🫠 What a nightmare. The whole story was pretty bonkers! My 3.5 ⭐️ rating is attributable to a whole lot of things going on at one time and also the seemingly rushed ending. I would definitely read White’s next release, however. 🤗
