3.0

This book has a lot of fun adventure in it. I didn't entirely care for it because of the tone and the characters, but I have a sense that anyone who likes tongue-and-cheek parodies of genres (it's not quite a parody but it feels like one) and a Harry Potter feel and the book this was born from (Fangirl) will probably like this.

Unrelated to my impression of the book overall, I got into a car accident while listening to this book, right at the part where Simon is also involved in a vehicle accident. I was hit by an oncoming driver who suddenly jumped a low median. Thankfully, I was ok!
