| My son bought it at a book fair at his school. He then asked that we interrupt our current bedtime book (The Fellowship of the Ring) so that I could read it to him.
Despite its numerous 5 star reviews on Amazon, I regret to inform you, Caltrops readers, that it is the worst book ever. If I were to order the books we have read from best-to-worst it would start and end something like this: 1. Mrs Frisby and the Rats of NIMH It is SO BAD. I was expecting, like, juvenile writing and kids running away from robots. That would have been A-OK. Instead, 99% of the 380-page novel is coming-of-age romance horseshit. We're 130 pages in and literally nothing has happened other than the main character girl flirting with a dude and wondering about her past. It's excruciating. AND looking at the Goodreads reviews apparently the stuff that happens isn't canon to the games anyways, it's all "alternate history" so the only motivation that kids have in reading it is out the window. I can only guess that the co-author (who has never published a novel under her own name before) was being paid by the word and is mainly experienced at writing romance novels under a pseudonym. AVOID. You may be tempted to buy this book for the young people in your life that are obsessed with FNAF and call it that by name ("fi-naff"). Do them a favor and buy them The Graveyard Book instead. |
