Who's Your Mummy? by R.L. Stine

4.0

When Abby and Peter’s grandma gets sick, she sends them to stay with their uncle Johnathan, an uncle they’ve never met before. So when a strange man with a horse and carriage picks them up, they think nothing of it. Soon, they realize, he may not be who they think he is. This was another really well told story. The reader liked the pace at which this was told. It was just fast enough that they needed to know what was going to happen next, but it wasn’t too fast that they were confused by what was happening. The deceit and deception was excellent and had the reader going the entire time. The way this ended, at first confused the reader, but the way the author was able to bring the story around was really well done and felt very clever. As for the Horrorland aspect of this novel, it felt extremely long, and the reader is getting a little bored with the premise. Each book ends the same way, the new characters join the old characters only to realize that Horrorland isn’t safe. The reader wants to see more progression into why and how they’re going to get out instead of adding more and more characters. At this point, the characters are starting to get a little blended together and we can’t remember who is who. Hopefully they’ll be more progress to come.
