Shark Night by R.L. Stine
4.0
I love R.L. Stine and his stories with a depth that reaches far into the origins of my childhood.
To be able to read his newest publication brought me a lot of joy and a good amount of healthy nostalgia as I was transported to a simplistic horror story designed to unsettle yet not quite terrify. Great for kids getting in to the horror genre.
Perhaps everyone can relate to being scared of sharks at some point in their lives - they are scary creatures.
Of course popular media like Jaws or The Meg exacerbate these fears into hysteria, creating the level of fear we know of today.
In reality, sharks are wonderful and necessary animals whose presence is required to promote a healthy aquatic ecosystem.
I love a good shark story, but I will always remember the logic over the fear.
