OH NO YOU DONT!!!! ANIMORPHS WAS THE SHIT- wait, no... Animorphs IS the shit! This is still my favourite book series to this day! It had relatable characters from all different kinds of family situations. Villains you can both love and fear (or maybe I was the only one scared shitless by Visser three....)
And don't get me started on the side books, oh my god, if anything those were the best thing in this series. I swear, I still cry when I read the ending to the Andalite Chronicles.
So yeah, this is a perfect example of not judging a book by it's cover, because these books looked weird as hell, but tracking them all down and reading them was one of the best experiences in my life, even though my favourite character died in the first chapter if the first book, and my backup character died in the last book...
Rant over.
Okay.... But seriously, try to get a hold of the last few books as it seems you haven't read them. They're really good (mostly because after book 45 KA Applegate fired the ghost writers and started writing everything on her own again, and damn does that woman know how to make your spine chill) but the last one is really sad.... Not AS sad as Andilite Chronicles (or maybe I'm just weird for finding that sad) but a close second
No kidding... The books them selves aren't even that weird, it's like Star Wars, everything is explained so well that it just makes sense and isn't weird no matter the subject matter.
Actually, you're supposed to judge BOOKS by their covers. That's why they have covers. To entice you into reading it. Especially because the back cover or those inside flaps often have the book synopsis.
