I think it was very interesting. Future Ratboy would be my favourite character.It interested me because no one knows about their future so i wanted to know about his.Yes i would (do it again) ,but I already did.

I like this book the most out of the ones I've read because the at the end he got zapped back into the present from the future and the picture he took with his friends is actually a moving picture.

I really enjoyed this book and really wanted to find out what would happened every time there was a cliff hanger however, there wasn't much detail at the end.

I liked the comedy and pictures and some of the story but at one point it lost that vibe.
