Enough about Me (Me vs. the Multiverse #2)

by S G Wilson (Author)

Reading Level: 4th − 5th Grade

Can plain old Average Me fix the rip in the multiverse? The Mes are back in this hilarious second book in the sci-fi comedy series for fans of Stuart Gibb's Moon Base Alpha and quirky animated shows like Rick and Morty and Regular Show.

Saving the multiverse starts with another origami note: Make it here, pronto. This time Meade Macon, aka Average Me, knows that parallel dimensions are real. He's met dozens of his counterparts from other Earths. What he doesn't know is that they're all about to get zapped out of existence. On Earth Zero, a rip in the multiverse is spreading to other realities and causing chaos wherever it appears. And the different versions of Meade--the Mes--are caught in the middle! Motor Me, Resist Me, and Hollywood Me just want to go back home to their own Earths.

The only way to do that is to repair the rip. Once again, it's up to Average Me! But if Average is going to fix the multiverse, he just might have to team up with his archnemesis . . . Meticulous Me.

Gr 3-6--The second installment of the series finds Average Me trying to fix a rip in the fabric of reality and restore order in this sc-i-fi romp through various iterations of earth. Each one has its own version of Meade (aka Me) that uses different monikers to distinguish them. Without a doubt the rip is causing major issues, but Meticulous Me and Prez Me have very different ideas about how to effectively handle it. As the factions of Mes align and realign, there are times when allegiances are confusing. While Meticulous is the archenemy of Average, it seems they need to work together to save everything. Building that trust proves difficult. The book has a penchant for toilet humor with characters nicknamed O'Fartly and Pooplaski. A sense of fun in the midst of chaos pervades this quick read with cartoon drawings of the various Mes, who present as white, which pepper the book. VERDICT Having the context of book one would help in making sense of this volume. Add to collections where the first book is popular, otherwise a secondary purchase.--Erin Wyatt, Highland M.S., Libertyville, IL
