A fun kid superhero book

Squirrel Girl is essentially a joke character, but been getting attention thanks to Ryan North fun writing and its soul sucking art that only work due to how fun he makes the book. If you love that comic, you will enjoy this. As it has good amount of clever jokes and capture the optomistic energy of squirrel girl.

If you never read any of her stuff, this is a good starting point as it is basically a origin story and how she becomes Squirrel Girl. Capturing the spirit of a kid trying to be a superhero versus a villain that is basically a counterpart but also have the same goofy unintentional humor.

I say the only real big conplaint is that it is a kid book, so it is a bit predictable. Plus there was one tiresome long joke that might work when you actually reading the book, but fails when translated to an audio medium.

But overall it was a really fun listen with the narrarator doing a fantastic job.

Great YA Novel even if you aren't a young adult.

Great performance and the story stays true to the character. Witty and optimistic. I loved it.

Good origin story. Definitely written for kids.

I decided to check out this audiobook because I'm a fan of marvel stuff and I had heard about how popular this character is.

The voice acting is very good and makes Squirrel Girl and Tip especially charming. Story wise, it starts off great for the first third of the book, then drags a bit in the middle (in one chapter she rattles off squirrel names for 10 straight minutes) but pays off very well at the end with lots of fun characters and references along the way.

It does a pretty interesting job of riding the line between the movies and the comics.

Adorable kids super hero book

Cute and quirky. Good enough for adults but perfect for kids. Also the perfect amount of Marvel tie-ins without the more famous characters taking over the story.

Great light and fun read for marvel fans

The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl is fun and light-hearted origin story for Squirrel Girl. The story is not complex but it is entertaining. The characters are likable and the narrator does a good job of giving different voices to different characters. A recommended listen for anyone who likes super hero stories, a fun and not deep story.

Fastest purchase decsion I've made on here.

I admit I'm the EASIEST sell in the world when it comes to squirrel girl so I'm one of the least qualified to give and objective read on the book. I liked it I thought it was cute and dorky and.... that's so in flavor for Doreen they might as well have coated the download in hazelnut icing.
