Ahhhhh! I love Oliver and Amy! The mystery is amazing and I love how the author a) leaves so many bunny trails with little clues but not enough to figure out the secrets, b) gives us just enough of Oliver's flavor to assure us that he has one but not enough to resolve the conflit. I can't wait to read the rest!!

The recent installment of Space Boy remains a delight, however, I feel that this was quite possibly the weakest one in the series so far. Don't get me wrong - I am thoroughly enjoying the story and the artwork is vividly superb but I don't think we learned much in this volume and the pace seemed slower.

Basically Amy meets Dr Kim and visits Oliver's house (which is more like a mansion) but whilst she is there she receives a phone call from Cassie (and David) who warn her about "dangerous" Oliver. Upon telling Oliver what her friends think of him, Oliver agrees that he is dangerous and shouldn't be friends with Amy any more. Amy talks to her now adult friend Jemmah about it and it leaves her wanting to know the reasons for this sudden change of heart.

And that's really it. *shrug*
