Wow! You're close.

How's it going with the mp3 files, by the way, gh? I assume you're too busy, but just curious...

Just been too busy with work and music. Honestly, I kinda forgot about them. I'll probably work on them when I get home from work.

I remember reading this book and being genuinely uncomfortable reading about Jake because of personal reasons. But also liking it despite thinking it needed a trigger warning. <.< Yep. Also I love James a lot and the fact that we see so little of him makes me angry sometimes. XD

50 was both awesome and horrible. I read 51-54 all on the same day, so they're kind of blurred together; I'm excited to be able to separate them a bit more.
yeah

This book seems to be a lot worse than I remember it. I don't remember the pacing problems, but it's been a couple years since I've read it, so I'll probably notice once I get around to re-reading it. The governor not having a name has always annoyed me, though. I feel that the book's focus on comedy wouldn't have been so much of a problem if it came a little earlier in the final arc and if other books (notably #48) were more integral to the plot. But being less than 5 books until the finale, it's pretty inexcusable.

Also, it just hit me how close you are to the end. Only 3 more books, damn. I've been a loyal watcher since late 2011 (4 years? Holy ****), and it's gonna be kinda empty without having any new OABG videos after this year. Obviously, I'm gonna stay subscribed and watch all of your stuff, but the Animorphs stuff has sort of been the flagship of the whole Poparena brand, so to speak. Kind of saddens me, especially since I've been able to work with you on the Animorphs Abridged finale, but I'm definitely looking forward to the last few reviews! :D

I seriously need to catch up on these. I'll try not to nag gh too much, but could you get some more mp3 files rolling out? I'm thinking about just watching/listening to the youtube videos.
yeah

Only three more books left? It'll be disappointing when these come to an end. . . . And I mean that in the sincerest way.


Book 189: "Shenecron's Pets"
Chapter 4: "First Attempt"
