A classic and good for if you need a distraction from any of those shitty current events. Would recommend listening to the movie’s soundtrack while reading. Does contain one slur unfortunately.

Content Warnings

Moderate: Physical abuse, Fatphobia, and Toxic relationship

Minor: Misogyny and War

Sponge and spiker, jame’s aunts, are the reason for the three moderate warnings. There is also

people reacting to what they believe to be a bomb threat, and some serious toxic patriarchy vibes from the cloud man society

2.0

It was cute but, I actually enjoyed the movie more🤷‍♂️ I give it a 2.5
Also there are some very problematic things in the book like fat phobia and a hint of racism when the grasshopper says he would rather be cooked and eaten by a Mexican, which was a very unnecessary line and honestly a gross thing to write.
