SO AWESOMEEE!!
This book was so easy to read as the sentences flowed beautifully. I chose this book for a school project and I'm so glad I did.

Hello Universe
This book is a moving tale of fate and friendship, and it shows a lesson through different perspectives while bringing together four unexpected friends. I recommend it for all ages.

Seriously?
I read this book to a group of Fourth Graders per teacher request while substituting. The insults of kid being “retardo”, fat woman checking out of store, and kid mentioning “making out” was in my opinion offensive in the book. Is it necessary to create a book that speaks so poorly of other individuals? Did not like the book and would not recommend it for 4th or 5th graders.

Developed characters, but undeveloped plot
It had great character development, but it's plot wasn't necessarily above average, and didn't fully develop.

It's my opinion, deal with it.
I personally dislike this book, though you might enjoy it. The plot doesn't have much of a climax, and even though i'm a young reader, I don't like the format and characteristics of the main characters. They don't have much of a problem to solve. And they don't really have that much of a plot. The only decent part is when Virgil falls into the well, and when Chet gets bitten by the snake. Virgil is a decent character, but Chet is a typical bully and Gen is the basic anoying and sometimes helpful sibling. I hope you understand why I rated this book the way I did.
