Initial Response
Jack is my favorite thing of ever.
High Lights
- IN CASE YOU DIDN'T KNOW JACK IS MY FAVORITE. He made this book, no joke.
- Rapunzel is still her feisty self, which is great.
- Freddie is ADORKABLE and also kind of a genius and may be my second favorite thing. Yeah.
- Prudence is...well, she's epic, except for she kinda betrays Jack and the gang which is a BIG NO NO, but it's cool in the end, it's good.
- I just really love Jack's relationship with his Momma, which is just so good. It's rocky at times, yes, but I just love them to pieces.
- Also there is much romance and shipping of Jack and Rapunzel. #yes
- CLEVER CLEVER story line!! I remembering the first time reading it I TOTALLY didn't expect the giants to be the ant people!! Like, whaaaat?! Good times, those were. :)
Low Lights
- The giants kinda freaked me out a little, but they got it coming to them. It's good now, we're good. :P
- Nothing, practically speaking.
Conclusion
Though I didn't enjoy this one as much as the first book, if you did like the first book, YOU NEED TO READ THIS. If not for closure sake, then DO IT FOR JACK'S. And then you can feel bad for him and have all the feels basically. All that good stuff, you know.
