Entertaining, but not as good as the previous books. I’ll still be waiting for the next in the series though.
Enjoyable return to form
A fun, convoluted entry into a quite enjoyable series! After the somewhat aimless 4th book, i didn't know what to expect, but Meyer proved yet again why we all need to keep throwing our money at him every time he releases a book. And the cliffhanger epilogue-! A great send-up of an old favorite.

This one was just ok... The concept is great, but I think the author ran out of good ideas on how to use it.

Maybe 3 1/2 stars. I liked this one was better than book 4, with that one feeling rushed to keep the momentum of the characters going. This one was confusing for me at times, losing track due to the multiple time traveling groups, and having FOUR Brits at one point. But I really enjoy these characters which are brought to life by narrator Luke Daniels.

I expected some kind of payoff to the "we have free will" lines. Hopefully the next book will have the big payoff...

A five star performance from Luke Daniels, a five star story right up until Brit turned into a vindictive, spiteful cow and pole-axed poor old Phillip. Darkened what I thought was an incredibly fun story. I must of missed something, but I can't quite get my head around how her planting of false memories in another version of herself of Phillip cheating on her was justified, that seems like a disturbingly manipulative, petty, cruel thing to do.
Disappointing, as this story was incredibly entertaining up until that point. Phillip's perfectly awkward forced laugh as he tries to rationalize taking his staff into the bathroom, the "Goblin's" reaction to Martin's "spell of disapproval" and the Harry Potter ripoff glowing Moose were memorable highlights, but there were plenty of other amusing, clever and hilarious scenes that really highlight how much fun the writer and narrator had with this book (Dance is in the Heart choreographed fight scene, "Looks like you fell for the banana in the tailpipe!, the varied references to Future Phillip's bedraggled appearance i.e. "Hobo Phillip").
I'm tempted to give this 1 or 2 stars for how strikingly bad I found the Brit/Phillip scenario but when I think of how good the rest was I can't stay mad at it!
This one was kind of sad and frustrating. A good read, but maybe a bridge too far in the series.
Much better than the last one. Not sure if it should’ve ended here instead of milking the series.
