![]() ![]() It's sometimes a bit over the top, or rather, sometimes the over-the-top-stuff gets a bit too ambitious there's pretty easy acceptance by almost everyone who's exposed to the supernatural stuff, for example. I loved how there was no sudden "with great power comes great responsibility" thing (at least not yet), and the characters were clearly out of their depths for most of the book, clutching their skateboards to their chests and trying to deal with the sudden supernatural element in their lives. Even better, the book delivers just that - it's cheeky and fun and often quite scary, and the characters are GREAT - and also, surprise, cheeky and funny, in a teenage horror comedy "ogod I know it's going to get me killed but I just can't keep my mouth shut" way. I'm talking about the title of course, with its cheeky silliness and intriguing contradiction. ![]() And this is how you make me buy a book without much caring about the blurb (yes, I did read it, but I was already pretty sure I was going to read the book no matter what). ![]()
