@cratermoon@bookwyrm.social how can I trust you when I don't even know what you mean by that?

@otterlove@bookwyrm.social good that you can identify that. I sometimes find myself "powering through" a book just because I feel obligated to.

I liked this one better than the first one, maybe because I didn't have a movie to compare it to.

I found the story interesting in that Roz was able to survive in a whole new way, and was able to help people and continue to make new friends and the like. While the story is somewhat predictable, though it might not be if this is your first introduction to our wild robot, but fun just the same.

The audiobook read by Kathleen McInerney was well done. I often find lady narrators annoying, but McInerey was delightful to listen to. I actually shed a couple tears, after just a few weeks ago thinking about how a book had never made me cry (though I cry at movies at lot).

Recommended, especially if you have young people to read it with.

This was an interesting story. I'm surprised that I have never heard of the Black Legion prior to listening to this audio book, particularly considering how much of my adult life I have spent in metro Detroit. But the author himself indicates he similarly didn't find people who knew about it doing his research in the 'burbs.

I kept expecting there to be more of a connection between the legion and the Tigers, but there really wasn't. It really could have been two different books, one about the championship season(s) of Detroit and one on the Black Legion, but it was somewhat interesting trying to tie the two histories told concurrently, just as they would have been in real life, but how many other historical events could have been tied in too.
