I enjoyed this a lot more then the first one. The story just overall feels much livelier, which works well for this kind of comedic light read. ART especially added some much needed personality to the story. in the first book, it felt like the protagonists desire to watch TV was just constantly said out loud, but here, there are more scenes where people actually have an emotional response to the shows they are watching. The interactions with the humans feel more nuanced and interesting this time around as well.
This book can still be very blunt with its themes, but this time the themes feel more present in the fabric of the story, unlike the first book, where it felt like there was very little substance besides what the narration stated directly.
