michelleheegaard's review against another edition
2.0
I recieved this from Netgalley in return of an honest review
I asked for this half-heartedly. The summary of it sounded a little mwaaah and I just thought; "well... if it turns out all bad I can just stop reading and review it as it is".... So I am going to review it as it is.
It ws boring. I guess it would be okay for a 10-year old but it definitly couldn't catch the eyes of a 18-year-old. The chaarcters were 'flat' and no depth. The mystery of founding out whether this girl was an alien or not? Please.. right from the start you knew the girl wasn't an alien. But maybe kids would have fun with the book? I actually think they will. Or that they at least will have a better time than I did.
As always from Gen Manga the pictures lacks a lot. But in this particular case it doesn't not effect the content at all.

lumiio's review against another edition
5.0
I recieved an ARC via Net Galley in exchange for an honest review.
This was a really amusing read. While it's a little extreme and definitely quite weird, I think it has some really good points and it was a nice mystery. The final reveal was a little bit of a push in terms of plot devices and the whole idea made me think "Who would actually do that?" but on a more general side, this was suppose to be funny and it did just that.
It isn't perfect, but I would greatly recommend it to anyone who wants just a light nonsensical and quick read.
