Very good

Revisado: 05-23-20

Got this for free from Audible Originals. I really enjoyed this book, it’s really short but I love the reveal, the suspense, and how nuts the bad guy is. I really enjoyed this book and I’m impressed at how short but full of a story it is. I will definitely check out more books from these authors.

Fun read

Revisado: 01-20-20

What a fun sequel to “Where The Hell is Tesla” by Rob Dircks, much like the first book you should expect a fun adventure with a lot of humor and some loving moments. I didn’t realize the author also did the audiobooks and I thought he did a great job at both. I particularly love the Cockroach King and Chip becoming President. I definitely intend to check out more of Rob Dircks books in the future.

Great Pickup

Revisado: 01-20-20

I picked this book up for free from #audibleoriginal and really didn’t know what to expect since it was in the kids section. But let me tell you, this book gave me a new appreciation and outlook towards books aimed at a younger audience. I also really enjoyed the voice acting and the sound effects. I think this would be a great Netflix movie.

(Spoiler) Learning David’s backstory is so sad and really visual, it makes him such a great villain because you can see and sorta understand why he blames himself and why he puts his entire life toward recreating his family. The shocking reveal that Emory was actual a robot the whole time and that he also died in the car accident really blew my mind and had no idea that was coming. I really also loved Eve learning how to be human and also embracing her robot side.

Just okay

Revisado: 12-16-19

This book was just okay for me, I either was already in a reading slump or this put me into a reading slump but it was okay-enough for me to finish but not anything I was really pushing to read. I also wasn't a fan of the writing style and tone.

Disappointing

Revisado: 12-16-19

Honestly, it was a struggle listening through this. The present-day moments were fine but the past memory stuff really didn’t interest me. I was at the point where I was hoping there was some big twist at the end that made all that backstory matter and it was disappointing when nothing really came of it.

Reading-Slump Killer

Revisado: 11-09-19

This book is so just so great and so different.

I love that this is told through the different characters by interviews and in the audiobook, each character had their own distinctive tones.

I really found all of this so believable and felt so realistic when I heard it. All the violence and tribalism seemed like an inevitability.

I will say that this is the "perfect" audiobook because there are so many characters but you don't necessarily need to remember their names because it is more about what happens then who it happens to or by whom causes it. That is what made it the perfect reading-slump killer book because the story is so captivating and easily understood.

I look forward to checking out more books from the author

Great campfire story

Revisado: 11-16-18

This is the kinda of story that has a campfire horror story like feel. None of the characters are that memorable but it is definitely advocative and gruesome.

What would you do?

Revisado: 08-01-17

I went into this book thinking it was a "making of a monster" kind of gory book and toward the middle, I started feeling disappointed because it wasn't. Then toward the end after the twists and turns, I appreciated the ethics and moral philosophy it provoked.

What I like most about this book is that it's thought proking. Every step of the way you question whether Chris is doing the "right thing" and what you would do in his place and that was quite fun.

Awesome made me want to play a MMORPG again

Revisado: 05-11-17

That was awesome.

This book literally made me go back to playing Maplestory after like 8 years.

There isn't a hard plot to the story and lots of world building, but that's pretty much what open world games are. I liked the quest stories and I found the grinding and training and partying training relatable.

Looking forward to reading the rest of the series.
