Katherine Loyacano's Reviews > Go Eat Worms!

Go Eat Worms! by R.L. Stine is the 21st book in the Goosebumps series and centers around lots of worms creeping, crawling, and causing chaos. Todd has a fascination with worms and enjoys digging them up and adding them to his basement worm farm. A big Science Expo is happening at Todd’s school, and his project is a worm house full of worms. Todd is very excited about his project and is sure he will win the grand prize; however, the worms have other plans.

Worms causing chaos is a great idea! Wiggly worms are interesting and do wonders for the soil. And, Todd loves all things worms which also includes grossing out his family and friends. Along with its cool cover, this story had so much potential, but it sort of fell flat for me. This book is definitely not one of the better stories in the series. It was not very scary, felt a bit repetitive at times, and the build up kind of ran out of steam. With all that being said, I loved that the worms get fed up with Todd’s antics and exact revenge, and the ending was surprisingly creepy. It is not a favorite Goosebumps of mine, but it was an entertaining enough read for Old School April, and I am sure young readers will enjoy reading it.
