Read my full review here! https://bookbumzuky.wordpress.com/2017/01/06/fickle-by-peter-manus/

AVAILABLE NOW!

Like most other reviewers, Im digging the way this was laid out. Its set up as if were reading a blog, we get the post and then we get the comments too. Its fun and informal. My only issue with the blogging aspect of this is that the characters type like idiots and occasionally use abbreviations I dont understand.

There are a number of characters in this novel when you include all the blog family. Our main characters are Fickel, Mysterious Hottie and Burly Bear and I didnt particularly like any of them...

I really, really, really loved this novel. It is filled with geeky nostalgia. I couldn't help but let my inner geek squee when a movie, band, tv show etc. that I loved appeared.

The characters were really interesting and I quickly became invested in their success. I couldn't help but smile, tear up, or laugh when something happened in this novel.

All in all, this is a novel for geeks, and mostly 80's geeks. Unfortunately the only thing 80's about me is my birth year (89). Even so, I thoroughly enjoyed this novel. This is definitely a book that I will have to reread. I feel like there was so much that I missed.

The acting is top notch, the nostalgia is incredible (especially being an 80's kid myself) and the storyline is unique and most importantly, fun! (0 more)

A Fantastic Show!

I'm not a huge sci-fi fan, but the combination of some of my favorite actors (hello Winona!) and the insane amount of 80's nostalgia - from the set, to the clothing and the soundtrack - makes it the wildest ride of mystery, fantasy and fun. The cast of kids are a great addition to the acting world and I imagine they'll all be world famous after all this is over. But I don't imagine the world of Stranger Things being over anytime soon!
