The ''Literature/{{Goosebumps}} [=SlappyWorld=]'' book where a robot causes havoc.
Livvy Jones is on the school robotics team and she and her friend Gates have created a realistic looking robot named Francine. But soon their creation starts acting strangely. Has Francine just simply malfunctioned or something more sinister at play?

!!This book provides examples of:
* AdultsAreUseless: Justified. At first it's the usual shtick of them not believing their daughter, but it eventually turns out [[spoiler: Mrs. B was controlling them and also had robot versions of them, so most of the time they were actually in on it.]]
* AIIsACrapshoot: The premise. Livvy builds a robot with Ai, which goes crazy. [[spoiler: It turns out that their housekeeper is actually a robot who, you guessed it, went crazy and sabotaged Livvy's robot.]]
* AlphaBitch: Rosa, who is on Livvy's robotics team and is always trying to outdo her.
* BetaBitch: Sara Blum, who used to be Livvy's friend prior to joining Rosa's crew.
* DreamingOfThingsToCome: The book starts with Livvy telling Gates a dream she had about their robot turning evil, which is what seems to start happening for real.
* HereWeGoAgain: [[spoiler: Francine turns on again at the end, demanding that everyone listen to her, so no one gets hurt.]]
* ParodiesForDummies: After Livvy experiences repeated problems with the robot she's building, a mean classmate gives her a copy of "Robotics For Dummies".
* RidiculouslyHumanRobots: The protagonist discovers that [[spoiler: not only is the housekeeper a robot her parents built, but the robot ''itself'' built robot clones of her parents, who she's been interacting with for weeks or months without realizing they weren't the real ones.]]
* {{Tuckerization}}: Gates is named after a kid whose family won an auction. as noted over in Trivia.
* ShoutOut: The title is an obvious one to the famous line from [[Film/Frankenstein1931 Frankenstein]].
