Nothing Can Possibly Go Wrong by Prudence Shen

324 reviews for:

Another great graphic novel by Faith Erin Hicks! Her art style is just brilliant and emotive. The story by Prudence Shen was cute and had me laughing out loud a lot! A great teen graphic novel about high school. This time it's the cheerleaders vs. the Robot Science club! How will they ever get funding for their completely opposite needs?

This was a quick and enjoyable read. I love, LOVE stories that shake up school cliques and make them mix in a fun way and this didn't disappoint! The art was great and was very well suited to the story.

Interesting setup- cheerleaders versus the robotics team, involving significant action scenes from each. The weird friendship between the two main characters never really sat well with me, but I mostly liked the book.

Charlie is the captain of the basketball team. His neighbor Nate is the opposite: robotics nerd. In an unlikely turn of events, they become a team of rivals with the rule-the-school cheerleaders. Overall, I found the story to be contrived and relying to much on teen stereotypes, from the jock-nerd dichotomy to the mad dash for student council president to the evil and powerful cheerleaders. That said, it was a cute, light story with some funny moments. The climax hinges on a "Robot Rumble" war like BattleBots. The weirdest part is that the height of the climax is cut out completely.

Readable, but overall leaves the reader with very little. I feel like I watched a long episode of Saved By the Bell.
