The laughs on this one...
I am fan of this read, Craig! Enjoyed the new elements- people & experiences - that you brought In to to the fold! Edward gets more remarkable in this one; he's definitely extending his boundaries and challenging the people in his life in a new way, that's for sure. I enjoyed the laughs in this one, and just had a fun time reading it!

I have now read all 3 books of the Edward Series. Overall, I give the series 4.5 stars. I enjoyed growing along with Edward and his expanding circle over the course of the series. I liked the 600 Hours of Edward and this one the best. I recommend the entire series.

Best Edward novel yet! Oh I hope there will be a #4 - I can only imagine how confused Edward would be by a toddler, haha!

I love Edward but I did not like the format for this book. However, I am thankful he was able to give up some of his more redundant activities. I hope he comes back with more stories about fatherhood and with an update on Hugo.

Books 1 & 2 were done in Edwards POV, this book was down through his journal with Shelia making entrees. I wasn’t a fan and the new narrator isn’t bad but I miss Luke.
A lot of drama which is normal for life. But I just felt like no one communicated well at all. Shelia steamrolls Edward a lot. And Edwards mother is a loose cannon lol. I laugh but I was also like woooo… chill lady.
I enjoyed the ending, I think Edward is going to be one heck of a father because he knows what not to do.

*Audio Review*
Besides the narration change on the audiobook, I loved the ending to Edwards story. This was mostly written in letters and at first I wasn't sure about it but I did end up enjoying it as much as books 1&2. Seeing the world through Edward was truly eye opening and I did love that he grew so much from the beginning showing that with a little love and friendship, things were different for him. I'm sad it's over but it was a beautiful ride!
The narration was disappointing for me. Not because he wasn't a good narrator but because I listened to these one after another and already had Edwards voice in my head. Changing after 2 books just doesn't work for me. This narrator was ok but he was very robotic sounding and that was hard for me to get past.

Really enjoyed this part in Edward's life. Less about his condition and more about his life experiences and development

Edward Unspooled is the third book featuring Edward Stanton. To understand Edward more, I would advise reading 600 Hours of Edward and Edward Adrift before reading this one.
Edward is such a wonderful character. He is someone that the readers take to their hearts immediately. I was so pleased to discover that Edward is now married and expecting his first child with his wife.
The story is told between Edward and Sheila in the form of a diary/notes to their unborn child. This made the whole story really endearing. Edwards entries were so bitter sweet. Due to his Aspergers it does make some of what he writes quite funny. It did feel though that he was constantly being told off by Sheila which I kept feeling quite sorry for him.
Even though Edward is now well into his forties, he is still very much treated as a child by his mother and his wife. As much as his wife wants Edward to stand up to his mother, she is constantly telling him what to do also. As much as I didn’t really like this about Sheila, overall you can tell what a good influence she has on Edward and more than anything you can see through these entries just how much they both love each other.
The whole story felt like Edward finally growing up and I was like a proud parent on the side lines cheering him on. He seems to learn so much more than just becoming a parent and I so enjoyed his journey of self discovery.
Edward Unspooled is just a wonderful read. Edward has vast become one of my all time favourite characters in a book. With each book my heart gets bigger with the pride that it is literally bursting with. He feels like he’s not only the authors creation but the readers also and I so hope that we haven’t seen the last of him.
Sweet, heartfelt, inspiring and an all round great read.
