This one didn't really float my boat. Although at times I thought there was real wit, the delivery was lacking. It seemed like one of the problems was the lack of purpose to the book. Who was it really pitched at? Adults? Then it needed more content and complexity (or just to be a lot funnier). Kids? Then the...

I expected that this book will cover a lot more of biology than it did. It was sort of a mixture of biology, chemistry, geography and history.
Some of the images were funnier that other, but overall I was not impressed. I did learn a couple of things, but I am secretly scared that because of the format...

Luego de habernos pasado todo Septiembre/Octubre haciendo bromas en referencia al título con mi pareja, prometí que iba a leer esta novela antes de fin de año para entender a qué apuntaba la misma. No me pueden negar que es un nombre curioso para un libro (aunque de RL Stine no me sorprende mucho, a...
