Welcome to Moonville felt like a modern-day Goosebumps, but for adults, and I loved it! It was fast-paced, super easy to get into, and short enough that I finished it in one sitting, just like I used to with Goosebumps books growing up. There was constant action from the first chapter, and barely a moment to breathe, exactly how I like my spooky reads.
The characters felt really realistic too. They acted like actual teenagers, panicking, making rash decisions, trying to figure things out without really knowing what they were doing, and just doing their best to survive. It made everything feel more authentic and kept me rooting for them the whole way through.
One thing I especially appreciated was how the story dropped hints and foreshadowed other characters and monsters that might pop up in future books. It gave the world this bigger, creepier feeling that has me excited to see what’s coming next.
If you want something quick, thrilling, and a little nostalgic (but still mature), Welcome to Moonville is definitely worth picking up. I’m already looking forward to the next one!
