4.0

It took me far longer to get around to this second novel of the Magic 2.0 series, which I started last year. I'm not quite sure what my hesitation was, but it ended up being a fun edition to my October reads! These books are such a fun and silly twist on sci-fi/fantasy novels. The author does a wonderful great job of creating something new out of his very obvious love for all things geeky. The time-travel aspect is fun, and I love that he consistently points out and even makes fun of the paradoxes that just work because they have to for the novel. I'm excited to see what the third one has in store for us... hopefully it doesn't take me quite so long to get to as this one did!
