You Owe Me One, Universe by Chad Lucas

4.0

I loved Thanks a Lot, Universe and was excited to move directly on to this one. Much like the first book, You Owe Me One, Universe was filled with heart and humor, but wasn't afraid to touch on some difficult subjects -- having an incarcerated parent, depression / anxiety, suicide. I loved the focus on the importance of friendship and how healing it can be to have a support system. What I love about middle grade books (when I read them) is that they are generally low-stakes and have a happy ending. I was very happy with the epilogue and how the story was concluded. This was a very quick read that I enjoyed just as much as the original.
