Simon and I enjoyed the first book, Gangsta Granny, very much, so here we go again with the sequel!
This volume features Queen Elizabeth II heavily. It's mischievously written and gave us lots of guffaws of laughter! It might just be better than the first book.

I just checked my review of the first book which I really enjoyed and for some reason thought that I read like two or three years ago maximum. I was so shocked to see that I read it in 2017 and here we are on the doors of 2024 so that means almost 7 years between the two books. I can't believe it.
It goes without saying that my tastes changed a lot during those years and also my reviews -yeah, my review of the first book sucks- I don't read a lot of YA and children books these days but there was something about the first book that really touched my heart, and it is probably the fact that it is a book about a granny, and I love mine so much.
I was excited to see where the story is going and although I can see it appealing for younger readers, the magic that captivated me as an adult was missing here. The first book had a certain depth to it that was missing here specially with it being a kid's book written with humor. Don't get me wrong, I would still recommend it to younger readers as it has the right amount of silliness, but I think it worked less for me as an older reader.

A return to form for Walliams! Hilarious, poignantish, and features the Queen sporting a lobster costume. What more could you want? Flavio Flavioli with a broken buttock! Hahahaha! I think this was written especially for me.

ENGLISH VERSION BELOW
Ich war ja sehr gespannt, was im zweiten Teil passieren wird. Und dann war ich mal sehr irritiert, da Granny zwischen dem ersten und zweiten Teil gestorben ist, was auf den ersten Seiten erzählt wird. Ben ist deswegen natürlich traurig, es wird aber nicht breitgetreten oder dramatisch beschrieben, da Granny bereits seit einiger Zeit tot ist und Ben Zeit hatte zu trauern.
Umso spannender ist dann natürlich die Frage, wie die Gangsta Granny abermals zuschlagen kann. Und davon muss man sich einfach überraschen lassen, denn es war wirklich unerwartet.
Ich habe so viel gelacht, ich liebe David Walliams für seine Ideen.
Das englische Hörbuch liest er übrigens persönlich.

I was very curious to see what would happen in the second part. And then I was very irritated because Granny died between the first and second part, which is told on the first pages. Ben is sad about it, of course, but it's not described dramatically, because Granny has been dead for some time and Ben has had time to grieve.
All the more exciting, of course, is the question of how the Gangsta Granny can strike again. And you just have to be surprised by that, because it was really unexpected.
I laughed so much, I love David Walliams for his ideas.
By the way, he reads the English audio book himself.

Eine völlig überraschende Gangsta-Oma
Nachdem Bens Oma letztes Jahr verstorben ist, leidet Ben ein wenig an Langeweile. Mal abgesehen von den Scrabble-Sessions mit der Cousine seine Oma, passiert nicht viel in seinem Leben. Doch plötzlich werde Diebstähle begangen und eine geheimnisvolle schwarze Katze taucht auf. Diese Diebstähle gilt es nun aufzuklären, also auf in ein neues Abenteuer.
Es hat wieder viel Spaß gemacht hier zuzuhören. Ben ist zwar ein Jahr älter, verhält sich jedoch genauso wie in Band eins. Die Charaktere, die dazukommen sind teilweise sehr anstrengend, nicht zuletzt seine tanzwütigen Eltern.
Ein toller Reminder, nicht für die Kinder. Passt auf eure Großeltern auf und lernt sie wertzuschätzen. Sie sind nicht für immer da und sie waren auch nicht schon immer alt, denn auch sie waren mal Enkel und Kinder. Fragt sie doch einmal danach und vielleicht überraschen sie euch mit ihren Abenteuern.

As usual David Walliams come out with witty book that mixture of fun, excitement and a bit of curiosity. This book definitely makes you glued to the chair. Book that you can read at one sit.
Although this book kinda humor, it still have interesting insights into parental expectations. Strong bonding between Ben and his granny makes him wanted to feels again the rushing of excitement when his granny was still alive.
Perfect balance of surprise elements and shocking truth. However I prefer the 1st book more than this sequel but any how pretty much enjoying this book too

Love Raj’s screen time! He is the absolute best! And the Queen! Oh gosh - Quite a scandal I must say!
And I liked the book - but I enjoyed gangsta granny much better! Hence the 3 stars!

My 11 year old absolutely enjoyed this book and was excited to listen to me read a couple of chapters each evening. It was a lovely light hearted read that had my son laughing and excited to see what happened next. As always, there were some great characters, but my son's favourite will always be Raj who he hopes gets his own book one day. My son owns all of David Walliams' books and definitely seems to enjoy the earlier ones more, so was excited when this sequel came out

Por mi 21º cumpleaños mi hermana me regaló este libro, que es la continuación del primer libro que me leí de este autor. Cuando lo vi en la tienda, me dio nostalgia por pensar en aquella época en la que casi solo leía a Roal Dahl y a David Walliams. Al ver la emoción con la que me fijaba en este libro, mi hermana decidió comprármelo sin que yo me enterase. Leer este libro ha sido como reconectar con mi yo de 9 años :) 🫂

I read the first book with my 10 year old in 2013. Unfortunately, the 19 year old does not want to read the sequel with me anymore. Despite that, I still enjoyed the book. This was short and sweet, funny and very action packed and the lessons and realizations you will get out of it, just like the first book. Still as timely and appropriate. Oldies do have things in them and they may surprise you.
PS. So I told my son what happened and got a smile. :)

Perskaičiau daug greičiau nei tikėjausi! Antra dalis šiek tiek geresnė už pirmąją. Atsirado personažų aprašymai, atsirado įvairesnių šriftų tekste - tai padarė knygą šiek tiek įdomesne. Istorija nebloga, skaitant truputį juokiausi. Įdėja senąją močiute plėšike pavaizduoti kaip katę man labai patiko.

I think that the book is full of exciting adventures with unexpected surprises which is my favourite type of books to read. The main character named ben, his gangsta granny passed away and started wanting to be a plumber instead of going on adventures. But what he doesn’t know is gangsta granny strikes again!
