I enjoyed this. I think the premise was more fun to think about than to actually read in execution, but it did a fine enough job. I wish I connected a bit more with the characters, but I guess that's half the point. It got a bit goofy in places, but it was a fun, quick read.

This is a hard rate. The book itself is very great, but not always technically good. The pace is rushed, and there are too many characters for the space the book took up - but isn't that an excellent reflection of the subject material? And yet, it was laugh out loud funny from beginning to end, and so heart warming, and altogether a fun, fun read. I wish the prose wasn't so abbreviated; if there had been more detail, and more moments for the story and the people in it to slow down and reflect back on the wild ride, I would have enjoyed it more.
