The Great Animorphs (Re)read Data Round Up (#6-10)
Yay for more very scientific data! Yay because the chart is starting to look like a bell curve!
It’s worth noting that my scores are based on a measurable (to me) scale, rather than based on how much I like the book. #6 (The Capture) is one of my favorites and I was giggling and kicking my feet while reading it. I also could not, in good faith, score it higher than a 6. On the contrary, I could not, in good faith, rate #7 (The Stranger) lower than a 10 even though I hate The Ellimist almost as much as I hate time travel plot lines.
Scoring and commentary under the cut.
