This felt quite unique and different to all the other middle grade horror series I've ever read. For one thing It has a unique set up. We get a cast of characters and a map of the town in the beginning which is always a fun addition and but the big thing here is we are following "monster kids" as our protagonists which is something I've rarely seen done, if ever. Also it doesn't go for any scares, it's just telling a story in this creature filled world. One thing I was thrown by what age group this is aimed at as some parts of the book feel very juvenile and there's silly jokes and then other parts are filled with advanced information and terms and references to things such as alcohol.
