A review by tabatha_shipley
Thriller by Jon Scieszka
3.0
What I Did Like:
-Boys Will be Boys specifically had good language and dialogue. It flows nicely and the pacing works.
-As a collection, this is great. Some are scary, some are funny, some are quirky, and some are cute. It’s a great mix of lessons, mysteries, and scares.
-Believing in Brooklyn is the BEST story in this anthology. The message is great and the story is awesome. I would’ve rated that one much higher if it were stand-alone.
Who Should Read This One:
-Middle-grade readers OF ANY GENDER who like mysterious and scary stories will love this collection.
-Readers who like a fast, short story that gives you chills.
My Rating: 3 Stars. This is a good MG anthology that will appeal to anyone who likes this genre. I’m only afraid that they put themselves in a tight niche that will scare off too many readers by calling it “Guys Read”.
