Synopsis:
In this modern, spooky novel by New York Times bestselling author Chuck Wendig, a boy must face his many fears to save his friends from a cursed videotape. Ethan Pitowski is afraid of everything. Luckily, his best friends don’t mind, and when their entire class gets invited to watch a long-buried horror movie at the most popular boy in school’s house, Ethan’s friends encourage him to join in the fun. But when the “scariest movie ever made” reveals itself to be not just a movie about a monster, but a movie that is a monster, only a terrified Ethan escapes its clutches. Now he must find a way to stop the monster and save his friends (and also, um, get their heads back). With his signature balance of kid-friendly horror and humor, Chuck Wendig crafts a spookily heartfelt novel about anxiety, friendship, and finding your unique voice and inner strength.

Oh my days when i saw the email that Chuck Wendig had written another Middle Grade Horror I was excited as I thoroughly enjoyed Dust & Grim.
This time Chuck uses this story to show that anyone can be a hero even if you are scared about a lot of things and I absolutely loved that. I also think that Chuck handled the topic of Anxiety really well and that is coming from a person who suffers from it.
I'm not going to say anymore as I do not do spoilers but what I will say this if you looking for a book with laughs and scares this is the perfect book for you.
For all the above reasons Monster Movie receives 5 stars.
