Not as laugh out loud or poignant as the first book but still lots of amusing and quirky bits in here. Veers a little too much into adult territory near the end. Definitely still on board for book #3. ( )

Timmy and Total are back to entertain us with their misguided antics. Timmy, typically full of hubris and schemes, is caught unawares by his great-aunt's unconditional love and acceptance. Don't worry, the story isn't too sappy...Timmy wouldn't approve of such a thing. ( )

My feelings about the second book in the Timmy Failure series largely mirrors the first. In Mistakes Were Made, quite a bit of the book's first half is familiarizing the reader with the characters and their story. The narrative of the second half sort of rushes through things, yet has some of the story's funniest moments. In Now Look What You've Done Stephan Pastis doesn't take nearly as much time setting the stage. The result is that the jokes start right from the beginning, and these moments are Timmy's best in the novel. Once the larger story is established, it actually begins to drag quite a bit. There's a balance in there somewhere that I imagine will be found in one of the subsequent books in the series.

I shall press on as I want to see what other hijinks Pastis can invent, and I'm most curious what will happen with Molly Moskins.

Despite the way she's portrayed, Molly's actually quite endearing. Molly, if you're reading this, please listen: If Timmy doesn't ever catch on, know that I do. I love the smell of tangerines and I think symmetry is vastly overrated. You will always have a special place in my heart. -CB ( )

This book is a good book for people who like funny and dumb stories that are mysterys. I think that this book is a good book because of Timmy and his freind Rollo.Timmy gets kicked out of school and then gets put back in the school after he is home schooled by his mother who desn't now how to teach like a teacher.
