A Babysitter's Guide to Monster Hunting #2: Beasts & Geeks by Joe Ballarini
3.0
Still a fun read, but I feel like a little bit of magic from the first book was missing here. All of the character's motivations felt a little bit hollow and I wasn't as sold on the Boogey-person this go around. However, this was still a good sequel all things considered.
I wish that there would have been more of Liz in this book, and honestly just more of the other sitters in general. The teamwork aspect of the first book was part of what I loved so much. I think Ballarini was trying to keep them out to develop Kelly a bit more as a character and babysitter, but I missed our squad! We just got so emotionally invested in them during book 1 and they were mostly MIA here.
