I am way too biased to write a review for this book, the only thing I'll say is...
I wanted my confession.
I had been wondering, speculating, and envisioning what would happen in that fateful moment, but nada.
Everything else is great, very interesting and although not my favourite book in this series, definitely added some good things to the wonderful world.

I’m disappointed. I enjoyed the prequel, it was fun. I was absolutely IN LOVE with the first three books. The first three books in this series were hilarious and complicated and outrageous and engrossing. The first half of the fourth one, I really liked. And then somewhere around halfway through the fourth one, the story started to lose me. I still wanted to know how things ended up for Penny, so I finally got around to skimming through this one. I wasn’t able into it the same way as I had the other ones, and I really wish I could have.

I found this installment in the Please Don't Tell My Parents saga a bit... flat. Very much a similar feel I had for [b:Please Don't Tell My Parents I Blew Up The Moon|23894295|Please Don't Tell My Parents I Blew Up The Moon (Please Don't Tell My Parents, #2)|Richard Roberts|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1418984071s/23894295.jpg|43502331]. There were moments of entertainment but often I just kept waiting for the story to move along. It was needed to get the outcome but it felt just eh.

As much as I enjoyed this series, I do not know if I will continue with it or not. I think I have seriously aged out of it (not that I was the intended age to begin with).

In this one Penny wakes to find her powers have split her mind and taken over her body while she is trapped in a robot and must find a way to get her body back before it's too late. While interesting in a freaky friday/body snatchers kind of way, it was also very jump the shark. If you have done the first 4.5 books in the series, I say read it to finish it up.

The velociraptors. That's when I stopped worrying and knew that this would be the perfect end to the Penny Akk series, as good as if not better than any of the other books. The whole story is told from Penny's viewpoint, trapped in a robot body. There is randomness and enough odd moments that it feels like there truly is a whole odd world out there that this story just touches. There's some deep thinking on the nature of people. There's also FABULOUS chickens. Something for everyone. Highly recommended!

An ending as predictable as it was satisfying.
