Chapters 10/11:
Love the Frankenkid. This little psychotic, malevolent, misanthropic, and sadistic Three Stooges-esque demon child is my comedic highlight of the book. Reminded me of the twins from Slugfest.
I think there’s a little artistic license taken with the police not being able to see the caller information from the landline, even if it’s a private number. I think perhaps that Carter could have been more anonymous spoofing his number through his cell phone, which wouldn’t require any more suspension of disbelief than his ability to get into private video feeds.
Raymond: I just reread The 39 Clues: One False Note and found it humorous that there was both a small-d “dumpster” and a capital-G “Google”-as-a-verb.
Thanks for the compilation list. There were a few I noticed the other day when I was looking to finish off the collection. I didn’t look at them too deeply, but there was: This Family Is Driving Me Crazy, and Librarian From The Black Lagoon that weren’t on your list. Gord was mentioned in the Mad Science series of books (which looks fun) but you probably saw that he didn’t have too much to do with it.
I no longer have a not-Twitter account, but if you’re interested on FB you can friend me on there, last name is Olenick.
