jojo_27 's review for:

The Very Nice Box by Eve Gleichman, Laura Blackett
3.0

Enjoyable but
Spoiler the ending felt rushed and not believable to me. I didn't understand what the motivation was for Mat to do everything he did besides "he's crazy", which to me is lazy. The pacing toward the end felt rushed as well.


I couldn't decide if all the fake products were funny or annoying, but it did create a specific feeling that made me feel sort of cushioned from reality. So in that sense, I guess it was effective?
