I queued up for What if? 2 as soon as the library's digital queue opened. In many ways, it's a great book for fans of What if? In other ways it was a bit disappointing. This time, it seemed like he picked questions that weren't nearly as interesting as the ones in the previous book (such as, what if you filled the solar system with soup). In some cases, he has entire filler chapters that are filled with questions, but no answers, or at most a small cartoon as an answer.
Nevertheless, the answers that were in the book are still well researched, entertaining (when there are answers), and full of jokes. Bowen turned up his nose at the book at first but I loaded it onto a kindle for a car trip and he found himself reading it.
Recommended.
