David Walliams sixth novel, "Demon Dentist" is a fun, campy horror romp! Loved Alfie and his father, it's nice to see a disabled character not be demonised for their disability while also highlighting the challenges that can come from not having enough support. Winnie is a lot of fun too and i'm so happy her, Alfie and Raj get to have their happy ending. Gabz was the best here and again i'm very pleased her and Alfie get to ve happy together. Mrs Root and Fang were so camp and silly I love it. My problem again lies with the fatphobia in this novel, it's so reptitive especially when it comes to Winnie. I'll also highlight that I believe this is the first novel to have more than one character of colour and both are written pretty well.
I'd also like to mention that this is the first book with a more structured plot, instead of one large event and it's ramifications across the story.
