Review:
I absolutely loved the first book in the series (which can be found here) so decided to continue reading to see what happens next. However, whilst the series seemed promising at first - I found the second instalment kind of boring.

Whilst the characters are as lovable as they were in the first book; the plot was boring and a bit all over the place, especially towards the end. It got to a point where I was really confused as to what was happening and where all the characters were! This made me not what to read the book as it was getting to be too much effort and not as relaxing to read. It therefore took me a week to read, instead of two days like the previous book in the series. However, hopefully this book is meant to act as a bridge to the next book to enable the series to continue.

However, whilst the plot was not really there; the humour was. There is something completely bizarre, and yet understandably necessary whilst in space, to get a spaceship computer to work out how to make a proper cup of tea. How British! 

Rating: 6/10.
