The Curse of the Mummy's Tomb by R.L. Stine
1.0
Didn’t like this one. Main character was really annoying and stupid, in my opinion, making it already impossible for me to enjoy this story, and then somehow everyone else was even worse. What parents don’t pack water in Egypt when they know they’ll be out for a while and also leave their child alone immediately? The cousin has the absolutely worst humor, and the uncle is horrible as well and also so occupied with stuff that he just … forgets about the kids? Like … just like that? Giving them a lecture about having to be careful and then doesn’t notice when one of the kids is yelling to get his attention?
The last 30 or so pages I found alright, but everything else was just too much. And if I had liked any of the characters, I think I could have overlooked some scenes that I thought made no sense and were just bad, but since I didn’t like the characters, everything else felt also way worse than it needed to feel. I wish there would have at least been a little more logic in how the characters behaved, but like this it just felt like a lot of coincidences and neglect.
