Dah DJM reviewed The Kaiju Preservation Society by John Scalzi
Save Godzilla!
4 stars
Just like in "Starter Villain", there are plenty of fun ideas in this book. It's light and a quick read. Had a French version of the book.

KPS is not, and I say this with absolutely no slight intended, a brooding symphony of a novel. It’s a pop song. It’s meant to be light and catchy, with three minutes of hooks and choruses for you to sing along with, and then you’re done and you go on with your day, hopefully with a smile on your face.
Not much to add to that, really.
As Scalzi says, this is a pop song of a novel. It's three minutes of light hearted joy. There's bad guys and monsters and cool action and science, but its mostly just a joyful and silly read.
