This review is from: The Blob That Ate Everyone (Goosebumps, No 55) (Paperback)

I thought this book was really good. I think the blob was really cool. My favorite part was when everything Zackie wrote everything and it came true. That was cool. The ending was cool because the blob was telling the story. That was funny. I think everyone should read this book. I gets 5 stars on my list.
