definitely would recommend this over the original book, as the pace is way faster and it's way more scary to actually see the animatronics do their work imo. i still think the problem of needing to know the context of the game lore and/or even the movie still applies, though. i also miss the inner monologue of all of the characters, instead of just charlie, i think it adds a whole lot more to the story.

william afton is also incredibly unhinged looking like wtf 😭😭

as a fnaf fan this book is one of my favorite things ever. the lore and the animatronics are so important to me and i love how the book handled that in a more organized way than the game lore.

i do have some...logistical problems though, which is why the book is not 5⭐️

they did not even question the kids possessing the animatronics at ALL, they just accepted it so quickly at the end even though all they did was run for their lives in fear 😭 i understand that michael possessing golden freddy made them trust it but it really should've been more frightening. i also don't like that the animatronics don't even move until the 70% ish mark, i think if i wasn't already a fan who knew the lore that would make me so mad 😭 i also personally think that new fans who don't have context of the games (or even the movie by now) will struggle with reading this.


other than that it was great!

the premise of this dystopia is interesting, but some things personally failed in execution for me, particularly the random romance arc and the timeline of when their world formed from ours. but it was super enjoyable to read and think about and engage with!
