This was a fun, light-hearted and quick read. Kind of like if Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy and Despicable Me had a baby. A good palette cleanser read.

Loved it. 
adventurous funny lighthearted

I loved this! I loved the cats and the dolphins! I liked that it was current timeline sci-fi. I liked how everything works out in the end. It was ridiculous but just the right amount.

This is a story about a young man named Charlie who finds himself down on his luck and about to be all out of money. Charlie finds out that his uncle passes away and he left his entire business to him. This comes with big complications that all need to be handled at warp speed. This book is filled with villainy, talking animals, back stabbing and misconception. It is so funny! All throughout the book there were little things that make you snicker or laugh out loud. I have already recommended it to my husband and son to read, and I know I will read it again.
