[Rennie · Rating 2 out of 5]

I originally gave this a 3 but the more I thought about it, it deserves a 2. It's so interesting up until the end where it just kinda ends. There was so much detail in the beginning and middle that got me invested in the story but at the very end it was like the author gave up. This book was like watching a fun, old school cartoon like Scooby-Doo but by the end of the episode they ran out of budget to keep drawing the characters and paying the voice actors so they just made it end as soon as possible.

My advice, if you want to read this, is to read it up until the last two chapters (which are like 2 or 3 pages long each) and then put the book down and come up with your own ending. I promise you it will be more fun than the actual ending in the book.

This is epic and hilarious. Too bad it's set in the UK and not Canada, so I can't use it in my research.

Spent a long time looking for this book and finally got it and read it and then sent it to a friend. Honestly it's not that great, kinda silly really but it amused me. Also a lot of spelling mistakes. Rated 4 mostly for the journey. Read it like a month ago actually but I forget when.
