a real good boi
I was sort of worried about this book. I like Hank, I wanted it to be good, but I remain skeptical of books by youtubers. I shouldn't have been. I read it all the way through today and was enthralled the whole time. The story is genuinely interesting. ( KNOCK KNOCK WHERE IS MY SEQUEL) April was a complex character that I sympathized with and disagreed with in almost equal measure. She came across completely human. Which was kinda the goal, right? The themes explored include fame, the way we tend to pay attention to the people who scream the loudest, how dangerous fear can be, and giant space men, and are so so relevant and clearly told by someone with an inside perspective. Someone who has given it a lot of thought. It's a book that has had, and I think will continue to have, an effect on my worldview. In some ways it confirmed things I already thought, but I think the things it confirmed were fairly empathetic views, which I can't see as a bad thing. The supporting cast wasn't particularly fleshed out, but I think that's okay. Besides, there's more books coming! Also it was pretty funny? and I enjoyed it a lot? and I want to read more of it?
