I like how the author has managed to discuss serious issues such as poverty, bullying, and terminal illness, in a humorous way. It's also good that the book is well edited. Thanks for the enjoyable review.

Mostly people who are able to assist others have personal and family issues that they find difficult to solve themselves. Anyway I like the story line and the setting. Thank you for the review.

Masterminders by Tara Basi is a #Satire that revolves around Bobby and Terry's banters on philosophical topics while facing bullies and family problems.

Thanks for the review.

I'm screaming, "Terry and Bobby, what are you chaps up to next?" This book is hilarious and enjoyable. A good medicine for the heavy hearted.

This book sounds adventurous and comedic. The review is insightful and captures the thematic areas of the book. It makes for an interesting read just following the antics of these boys and the discoveries they make of themselves and those around them.

Morning, noon or night--whatever the time and whatever the climate--I will be able to happily devour this book. There is no limit to its frivolity, which does little in the way of making it a cloying romp. I will not speak to its merit, partly because all I worried about was whether my chops could survive my laughter. It's better than an antidepressant.

A story that talks about the escapades of two young kids at their Catholic school sounds interesting. I am not so much a big fan of satirical books but this seems like a worthy read.
Feeling upset sometimes may be unavoidable, but acting distressed is always optional.

Based on the review I am not sure if this book is something that I would enjoy reading. I like books with humorous content but the story is not drawing me in to read the book. The cover also turns me away from the book. I think that I will pass on reading this story.

Satire is almost always a win for me, and the mixture of humor with more serious topics should make for a very appealing balance. If the cover is any indication, this should make for a very entertaining--if not a bit bizarre--read for anyone teenaged and older. Thank you for the helpful review.

A satire with witty humor and touching backstory of the characters seems quite interesting to me. Thank you for the review!
