Hocus Pocus & The All New Sequel - Reshelved Books

Hello Dewey Readers!

There is nothing better than the movie Hocus Pocus.  It's 90s nostalgia at it's very best.  BUT the one thing that might even come close to being better than the movie is the book.  

Hocus Pocus & The All New Sequel is JUST like the movie.  Yes you read that right.  I am super excited that the book (based off the movie) is just like the movie.  It's like the movie is playing in my head right down to the dialogue and I am in love with it.  But while I was loving part 1, I became worried.  Would I love the "all new sequel"?     

I didn't.  An that's why this review has taken me so long to type. This is also why you are now reading a witchy book review at the very end of November.  While I devoured part 1, part 2 left me bored.  In fact, it left me so bored that I put down this book and read a few others in between. 3.5 others to be exact.  

So why didn't I love it?  Really it's mainly because I don't know what I read.  Hocus Pocus part 1 (and the movie) set the bar incredibly high.  I really don't know what I read in part 2 or why I finished it.  I guess I just wanted it to count in my GoodReads 2018 challenge.  

So Dewey Readers, my advice to you: read part 1, but don't other with part 2. I give it 2.5 out of 5 Coffee Beans.  

Until the next read!
