RETURN OF THE MUMMY by RL Stine

Return of the Mummy (Goosebumps, #23)
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Here's another of the scabbier (condition) Goosebumps we found during our thrifting outings. 😁

Gabe is excited to be going to Egypt for the summer, where he'll spend time with his Uncle Ben and cousin Sari.

Well, he's excited about his uncle's latest discovery, but not so much his competitive cousin. But none of that will matter after they find themselves in some serious trouble...

OMG. I LOVED this!

This book was SO much fun, and SO atmospheric. Reading this book was like going to Egypt and exploring the creepy tombs deep inside the pyramid along with the characters. Every description was vivid. I felt like I was right there in the desert.

Gabe was such a cool character, and I liked Uncle Ben. Also, as prickly as Sari was, I liked her too. RL Stine has a knack for writing great kids and adults. Not to mention that he has a cinematic way of writing stories, always hits you with several cool twists and doesn't stop shocking until the very last word.

Oh, and after I finished reading this book I found out it's actually a sequel! So I'm looking forward to getting my hands on the first one.
