![]() They are two completely different books and each is great for completely different reasons. Let me make something clear before I even start this review, while I really enjoyed reading It's The End Of The World As We Know It it's not the new The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy. Thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for providing me with a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review!įor fans of The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy' I was disappointed with It's the End of the World as We Know It. The story than has been describes as like The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, but I missed the charm. You sidn't dee that coming, yid dou? So edgy. This particular book had a character who liked to switch the first letters of random words. It is a way of telling instead of showing, and besides, it is migraine invoking. I don't like it when for the sake of it, authors start to change the way words are written to show how much something is unlike something else. ![]() ![]() It was this last thing that immediately annoyed me. Mikey is pretending to like this social hacktivist in order to get into a girl's pants and instead finds himself whisked away through a rip in the space-time continuum towards a parallel universe which is like earth, but with way worse spelling. This is my first YA scifi in years (I think?) and I lovelovelove it. "Are you winking thot I'm thinking?" said the first. I imagined them to be super adorable little cubes with cute little faces, surfing the rip of space and time. Super crazy, super chaotic, super fun read for me. well, let's just say sending Mikey back didn't help solve the problem. And after everything that they went through. But stuffs happened and the evil Kat named Onska had a different plan and they were sent to various places and faced different obstacles. The rip was unstable so they thought the only way to close it for good was by sending Mikey back. They went through so much shit just to send Mikey back to Earth (Planet Mud as the Imps called it). It's the story of a ripped space and time continuum and how a boy, Mikey, got sucked into a parallel universe, on planet DEVA, where he met a shadow girl, Kix, her sidekick, BitZer, and a crew of Imperfectibles (Imps). Of course, I understand if people have different opinions as oppose to mine. It only took me less than 48 hours to finish it, and considering that I've been having trouble finishing a book lately, that's how good this book is to me. I can't say that they're right (I'll read THGTTG to verify!) but I super love this book. I have yet to read The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and I read many reviews comparing this book to that book.
