Inside Out 2 (2024) - 5 of 5


As I've documented before, Inside Out represents a genre I deeply enjoy, and this sequel is no exception. I greatly enjoyed the movie and look forward to watching it again.

From the book listing:

A BOY MEETS A GIRL.

THE PAST MEETS THE FUTURE.

A FINGER MEETS A TRIGGER.

THE BEGINNING MEETS THE END.

ENGLAND IS FOREVER.

ENGLAND MUST FALL.

There are several ways to tell a story.

I finally finished this book, taking my sweet time doing so (I blame Balatro for that at least some, but not entirely.) Truth is that the story did not grab me until the final act. There, it swept me in, and I quickly tore through the final pages.

Looking back, I had found a handful of turns of phrase which I highlighted. Most are spoiler-laden so I won't share them here, but here are a few choices ones.

In a discussion about religion:

Belief has very little to do with rationale. Why demand a map for uncharted territory?

Next is a line that I thought this was an interesting social observation.

Most friendship quartets don't function in squares but in lines

And lastly this line:

Most things don't happen. Mostly the universe is parking space
