I read Dinosaur Boy and it was as crazy as the title implies. This book takes the "F**k everything, let's just do everything in our power to make this as wacky and strange as possible. How about instead of one plot twist, let's have freaking 300 of them! Let's do all kinds of s**t and make it as cute as possible so the audience can forgive us!" Wait, what are we talking about again? Oh yeah, my first LSD trip-without the drug itself. Anyway, although the magic mushrooms effect of cramming as much crazy stuff as possible does sometimes work in it's favor, it can become so scatterbrained that things go flinging everywhere all they way past the Jupiterians. Also, what? Jupiterians? Also, now there are aliens from mars to, I guess? And they all have bad eyesight? I didn't expect Speed trips to be so powerful, jeez. Huh, who are you? What's happening? One second there where dino people and then something about commentary on bullies? I have so many questions-like why this is making my brain hurt. Oh yeah, cause nothing makes sense in this damn Ayahuasca trip.
EHHHHHHHHHHHH 69/420 and 5/( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°).
