Original recap for the Snark Squad here.
This book has more like FIVE STARS... but only in my heart.
This was the first Goosebumps book I reread for the Snark Squad, and man is it a good one. I mean, good in the way that it made me really, really sad that I was ever a child.
Our main character's name is Larry, which I'll help you remember by telling you that it rhymes with "hairy." I'd take credit for this brilliant and significant deduction BUT RL Stine is the one who went there, and then prom...more

Ok I was wrong, this one was not any better than the last Goosebumps book Attack of the Mutant. I didn't even read all of it. I read the first page and felt it was a rather lame start to the book. I skimmed read a few pages and really hated it. I just can't find the humor in a person growing hair on their body. According to my fellow Alien friend Alieana, that's called being a human. Humans grow hair, some faster than others. I had a friend who had so much hair at age...more

Dari bejibun serial Goosebumps yang sudah pernah kubaca, buku ini yang paling favorit.
Alasan pertamanya egois: nama salah satu tokohnya sama denganku. ;P
Selain itu, mungkin di antara serial Goosebumps yang lain, serial ini yang ceritanya paling tidak tertebak.
Akhir ceritanya juga yang paling mengejutkan.
Buku ini menginspirasi untuk ngasih nama Jasper ke kucing teman main, gak cuman karena bulu dan matanya yang sama dengan gambaran di bukunya, tapi sifatnya juga sama: sengak!

this book was kind of fun to read but there was a lot of the mystery repetition and never went to the explanation until the end of the story which ended up becoming annoying a bit. It had an interesting beginning where the main character finding a mysterious tanning bottle which he used on himself then started to grow hair all over his body, gave a little suspense but the repetition kind of ruined it. other than that it was ok.
From start to end you will be baffled by this book. A mysterious ailment has befallen Larry a middle school boy. It is ruining his social status and casuing problems for him. Desperately larry journeys around town looking for the cure. You will not be able to put down this book as it lures you in, its strange mystery makes you read until you get to the last page where you find a pleasant surprise.
I have a lot of affection for My Hairiest Adventure. So far, it’s the Goosebumps book I most clearly remembered from childhood, right down to which song Larry and the other Geeks are playing when his coat really starts coming in. It’s not the best Goosebumps book, but it’s fun and goofy and clever, and the lack of scares is pretty refreshing.
I was hooked on these series as a kid. I remember when this first book came out and all the hype surrounding it, and quickly joined in on scarfing these things down. They were fun at the time, although even in grade school they had me rolling my eyes at some of the goofiness (and the cliffhanger chapter endings! Every chapter, without fail!).
This book is kind of boring in some parts, but when you get towards the middle it gets really good and exciting. The ending is crazy and unexpected. This book is pretty good, its not that scary unless you think kids randomly turning into animals and their parents disappearing. This book is one of the better goosebumps books.

This was the first chapter book I ever read! I was in Kindergarten, and I spent literally 45 minutes reading the first page because I didn't know any of the words yet! I can't believe this is on here!
kinda cheesy. I kinda like it though. I thought all the goosebumps books are good, but cheesy. I guess that is why i like them. i read them all the time...
It is first book I read in English. I was in ESL back then. I could say that my habit of reading started with this book. Although this story was really weird.
Goosebumps was so popular when I was a kid, we would get in fights in the library over who got to check the new one out next. No joke.
Cerita Goosebumps ini memang ajaib.. tema nya kadang aneh.. dengan ending yang selalu mengejutkan pembacanya... Mantappp...
This town's children was all animal that turn to human. Then how about the adult. Do they have children that was human?
Sci-fi win - turning animals into humans can't be too far out of reach with today's science, right?
I read this as a kid and i remember that the ending was so unexpected i talked about it for months
I remember reading this at like 10 at night when i was like six and it scaring the crap outta me
What an odd story. Is it weird that I want to read this book as a metaphor for puberty?
weird but the unexpected twists rocked! i love it
Mostly weird and kind of funny
OH no! My hair grew! Puberty! please.
It is one of my favorite Goosebumps.
