This one is insane. My main problem is that the first half is one weird practical joke, but the second half makes up for it. The second half of this book is ridiculous in the best way possible. Mr. Wood repeatedly saying “I have powers!” Is the funniest thing I’ve read in a Goosebumps book yet. Also, Mr. Wood is the most pathetic villain in the series so far, he is really ineffective and weak. This is the first Goosebumps book in the series that is so stupid that it is amazing. Loved that second half.
