It was corny. It was cheesy. It was enjoyable enough šŸ¤·šŸ¼ā€ā™€ļø I'm confused as to why the setting had to be the 80s. There was nothing about it that felt like the 80s except the occasional mention of shoulder pads and no cell phones. 

But it was fun, in a trash TV in your pajamas and junk food kind of way.

This was a decent follow-up to the first book but it didnā€™t hit quite as high as that oneā€¦but the narration was fantastic.
