3.0 out of 5 stars Is this the last Mostly Ghostly book?, January 14, 2007

This review is from: Don't Close Your Eyes! (Mostly Ghostly) (Hardcover)

Until this past summer, my son would only read non-fiction (books of facts were his favorite). He absolutely refused to read fiction. Once I persuaded him to read "Who Let the Ghosts Out?", he was hooked. He couldn't wait to read the next book.

We looked at the RL Stine and Mostly Ghostly websites and he got psyched about what would happen in the upcoming books. This one ("Don't Close Your Eyes") wasn't listed on any of his sites, so we didn't know it existed until I stumbled across it at one book store. Then I saw it here.

Unlike the others, it does not list an excerpt from the next book, and the story isn't wrapped up like you would expect from a final book, so I am not sure if he is planning to write more or not. He seemed to be doing at least 2 per year, but nothing in the past year. This one seemed like he was pushed to write something but he ran out of ideas.

It's a fun series for kids (not scary), and we wish Mr Stine would write more, or at least write a final book to wrap up the series.
