Quirky Cat
Book Summary:
Vic has spent his entire life in the woods – and the tree houses his father built. This has been the only world he's ever known. His only companions are the bots he's managed to salvage and repair, plus his father, of course.
One day, Vic and his friends come across a damaged android. Determined to give this android a chance, they bring him home and get him running once again. What they don't know is that in doing so, they are about to change their lives as they know them.
My Review:
Eee! I can't believe it's time to dive into another one of T.J. Klune's novels! To say that I was excited about In the Lives of Puppets would be the understatement of the century. If you love Klune's writing style but have always wanted him to play with a more dystopian setting, this is the novel for you.
Overall, I enjoyed In the Lives of Puppets. I don't think it's my favorite of his works, but it's still solid (and worth the read). I loved seeing his exploration of this world, which was expressed through Vic in many ways. I especially loved how Vic himself had to go through some exploration, again in many ways.
I loved the variety of characters in this novel, especially Rambo – they were my favorite. Read this book to enjoy a novel with a strong sense of character and humor alongside some bittersweet moments.
