Blog Tour, Review & Giveaway: It’s The End of The World And I’m In My Bathing Suit

Justin talks about IT’S THE END OF THE WORLD AND I’M IN MY
BATHING SUIT

Before I begin my review I quickly have to say thank you to Rockstar Book Tours for allowing me to be a part of this book tour and to Scholastics for graciously providing me an eArc of the book to read for my review stop today.

This was definitely a fun and funny read and one that I highly recommend if you have a middle-grade boy as I am sure they would appreciate the humor in this.

The main character is a twelve-year-old boy named Eddie and he is starting summer vacation. Eddie has made a deal with his mom and stepdad to be more responsible this summer with keeping up with doing his laundry if they promise to give him a little more freedom. Eddie has a plan that each day he will wear his clothes once and hid them so that they think he is doing laundry with the hopes of doing it once.

Well yes, that sounds like a good plan, but you must know that all good plans don’t go according to plan, and that’s exactly what happens to Eddie. He gets busted by his mom. The worse part is that he gets busted on the eve of the summer bash and she gives him two choices of you either do the laundry or you can’t go to the summer bash. Eddie wants to go so he decides to try and butter up his stepdad in hopes he will go against his mom because he really doesn’t want to spend the night washing/drying his clothes, but stepdad stands his ground. So Eddie has no choice but to haul all his clothes to the basement and wash them. Although he does realize he can speed up the process.

Now we all know that this might be a quick and easy solution to the problem but the karma Gods will come and bite you in the butt just like they did Eddie because no sooner is he in the process of washing and drying his clothes the power goes out. This is not good so when it doesn’t come back on Eddie goes to investigate what is happening. He bumps into his friends on the street and they soon realize they are the only ones out. What is going on? Where is everyone?

Definitely excited to see where this will go.
