It just had to be Rosenbaum who’d make the comparison. The precise comparison.

And it had to be in a review where some utterly inconsequential, thoroughly disposable, toothless piece of kids’ summer entertainment causes him to go intellectually berserk and predict the end of humanity.

And he had to quote something that I actually remembered word for word from one of Coville’s books.

Now go tell me if someone has since compared R. L. Stine to Gertrude Stein.
