'If you like stories about mostly perfectly nice children in imperfectly spooky situations, you’ll adore Kiersten White’s Wretched Waterpark! It's both give-you-the-chills-creepy and laugh-in-a-room-by-yourself-funny. If I have to die in a waterpark, I want to die in this one.”-Holly Black, #1 NYT-bestselling author of The Folk of the Air series “Like a big waterslide that you scream all the way down, only to laugh in relief and get right back on, this book is gothically hilarious and an absolute delight. But are Theo and Alexander out of their depth? Something mysterious is happening at Fathoms of Fun, and it’s up to the twins to get to the bottom of it. An impossible figure is at the top of the slide tower, people are disappearing, and suspicious goo is seeping into the wave pool. The employees wear creepy black dresses and deliver ominous messages. The waterslides look like gray gargoyle tongues. But the park is even stranger than Aunt Saffronia. When Aunt Saffronia suggests a week pass to the Fathoms of Fun Waterpark, they hastily agree. They’re stuck for the summer with their Aunt Saffronia, who doesn’t know how often children need to eat and can’t use a smartphone, and whose feet never quite seem to touch the floor when she glides-er-walks. Meet the Sinister-Winterbottoms: brave Theo, her timid twin, Alexander, and their older sister, Wil.
