Pokémon Go meets The Goonies in this exciting new adventure series!
What happens when your cool virtual-reality game . . . becomes REAL?
Monsters Unleashed—where you catch virtual-reality monsters on your cellphone—is one of the hottest mobile games around, and Bex and Charlie just can’t stop playing. They even check out an old map in Charlie’s grandfather’s attic in hopes of discovering some forgotten places in town where the rarest monsters might hide. But they find a strange machine up there too, and after Charlie switches it on, the WiFi goes down . . . and Bex’s entire catalog of monsters vanishes! And that’s not the worst of it: all the creatures she’s collected on her phone escape into the real world. Can the friends nab the beasts before they become monster lunch?

About the Author:
Kim Harrington is the author of the young adult novels Forget Me (Penguin/Speak), The Dead and Buried, Clarity, and Perception (Scholastic), as well as the middle-grade series Sleuth or Dare (Scholastic). She lives in MA with her family.
From School Library Journal:
Gr 3–6—Best friends Bex and Charlie are excited to spend the summer before middle school searching for monsters. Like most of their town, they're obsessed with the newest app-based game, Monsters Unleashed, where players find and catch virtual monsters on their phones for points. In hopes of finding the rarest beasts, Charlie and Bex visit Charlie's grandpa's attic to pore over old maps, but instead they stumble upon a strange box. When Charlie switches it on, the Wi-Fi goes out...and all of Bex's monsters vanish from her phone, appearing in the real world. Now the two friends are on a mission to catch all 10 monsters before they, and the rest of their town, become monster lunch. Bex and Charlie deal with mean friends, bullying siblings, and nervousness about starting middle school, but character development takes a backseat to plot-driven action. VERDICT Fans of Pokémon Go will enjoy this slim series starter, where a foreseeable plot keeps the action moving at a quick clip.—Kelsey Johnson-Kaiser, St. Paul Public Library
