Danny is a seventh grader who loves video games, and he is understandably thrilled to spend a week with his Uncle Bill, the owner of PixelWorks, a huge video game arcade. Danny has heard of a rare game called Grin from his favorite video game streamer, and he is shocked to find his Uncle Bill unboxing the game in his warehouse. Rumor has it that everyone who has ever played the game has died tragically, but that doesn't stop Danny and his uncle from trying it out. When the game takes over Uncle Bill, Danny risks his own life to save his uncle and himself. Middle schoolers are always asking for horror books, and this is a rare title that will not disappoint (while also being completely appropriate for young teens). Highly recommended for middle school libraries.
