Two fun blogs!

articulation brought this to my attention--how many of you read the Goosebumps books when you were a kid? In the same vein, how many of you thought that by association, R.L. Stine was the coolest thing since the lava lamp? Yeah, though so XD Me too. Though I can honestly say that only one of the books ever actually scared me ^^;;

Anyway, there's actually a blog about it--an adult is reading back through the books and reviewing each of them. I've only read a couple so far, but I enjoy them. One, it's a nice trip down Memory Lane, and two, it confirms what I thought when I picked one of the books up at B&N one day and paged through it for the sake of nostalgia.

...that thought being, "How in blazes did I ever think these were good??"

There's also one for Fear Street. I never read as much of the basic Fear Street series, though for a while I was stuck on a couple of the spin-off series.

Enjoy!

I think we're all like that. There are very few books (or heck, even cartoons) from my childhood that I pick up now and still go "Wow! This is just as fantastic as I remember it!" I recently reread Two-Minute Mysteries by Donald Sobol. Still enjoyable...but I remembered the answer to every single one of 'em XDD

Thanks! *glomps articulation for the find* She found the Goosebumps one, I found the Fear Street one :D
