I thought this book was really good it was well written and in my opinion, I suggest this to anyone who likes comic action and the sport called fireball this book is very well transitioned from the first one it gives a bit of background on the last book then start an adventure for the main character hakota soy. These to books are about a boy who goes to space academy but it is just like a normal school except for one class learning how to float in space

I love you, but I'm not IN love with you. I love the vastness of SPACE ITSELF.

I am clearly not the intended audience for this book. I think the story is kind of sweet but it just goes on forever and I wished it would cut to the chase. I am sure it will be beloved but not by me.

Dave Roman provides a sporadic read with the adventures of Hakata Soy in Astronaut Academy: Re-Entry. The character Hakata Soy returns for Spring semester to the fictitious space station that trains pre-teens, or tweenies, to become future astronauts. The space station would seem to be under attack by a shape shifting heart eating creature that fools its victims by disguising itself as the victim's secret crush.None of the victims die necessarily since all the characters seem to have more than o...

Better than the first book.

Book 2 of the Astronaut Academy series, graphic novel, 4th or 5th grade and up.Hakata Soy, ex-super hero, is back at school after semester break. So, unfortunately, is a monster who shifts his appearance to look like various students' love interests and then steals and literally eats their hearts. (As each student has several hearts, this is serious but not fatal.) The administration has forbidden any love interests at all but has not managed to catch the monster. Hakata and friends try it their...

As with most sequels, I didn't like it as well as the first Astronaut Academy book. For those that loved the first book, this one has a similar format with characters being introduced and then telling their part of the story. When these first person accounts are all put together they tell the story of the missing hearts and how it's effecting the students of Astronaut Academy. I think the story is a tad silly but still entertaining. C rating.

It was a good book but it left me with the impression that it needed a continuing story.So,Please writer make Austronaut Academy N3. :D

Another super-fun book. I once again really enjoyed how each little story, told from a different kid's perspective, interconnects to the next. This one especially felt interconnected, even more like we were seeing a complete story arc, just from different angles. I liked this one even more than the first one, maybe because I know the characters better and appreciate seeing their deeper connections. This is such a great book for kids because it emphasizes the importance of forgiving people and be...

This is the second volume in the Astronaut Academy series, and Hakata Soy and gang are back for more fun and adventure in this Spring semester. There’s a new trouble brewing in the school as someone...or something is stalking the halls of the academy, impersonating other students, and making of with their extra hearts! Will the students be able to survive and recover their extra hearts...or are they doomed to only have one.This book was definitely easier for me to read than the first one as ther...

Something sinister is happening at Astronaut Academy, when a student gives his or her heart, or hearts, to his or her beloved, the recipient turns into a monstrous parody of him- or herself and ruthlessly devours the heart of the giver, and not only that the big fireball tournament is heating up with arch-rival Public School Gamma Quadrant and deep between the shelves of the library evil Team Feety Pajamas is plotting terroristic mischief!It’s another laugh out loud semester of seriously silly f...

I enjoyed this as much as the first book - it keeps the same humor, but I liked that it delved more into the first book's idea of giving your heart(s) away. It takes on both a sci-fi, romantic and metaphorical case here and it was wrapped up with a sweet message. There's also a small nod to the LGBT community, and while it is pretty small, it's something that you kind of wouldn't expect to see here and I appreciated it.

Here's something you should know about this book: the cover is shiny. Like, really, really shiny. You can't tell in the picture, but it's actually gold! foil! So that's pretty exciting for us. The thing that Dave Roman's Astronaut Academy series reminds me the most of is Louis Sachar's Wayside School books. They're all about a crazy group of kids -- who are in a school -- and have mysterious, funny, fascinating adventures and interactions. No one makes student-flavored ice cream in these books,

Preferred to the last one. I think the sarcasm would appeal to lots of young readers. 3-6th grades

First Second, 2013Graphic Novel: Science Fiction190 pagesRecommended for grades 3-6Students at Astronaut Academy are at risk of losing their hearts to a monster disguised to be the object of their hearts' desire. So, to protect the hearts of the students, falling in love is banned. There is a lot of loving and losing in this story, which is funny considering the book appears to be geared towards young boy readers...not sure if they care about falling in love yet. Things I appreciates: Roman is a...

I love the bubbly illustrations, the character stories, and the overall setting but found the flow of the story to have stops and starts. There are plenty of pop culture references: Sweeney Todd, Kiss, THX 1138 (George Lucas' first film) and I'm sure that there are others that I've missed. With lots of laughs, pictures that beg to be viewed more than once and some insightful moments peppered in, this is an enjoyable read.

Read with 7yo and 4yo. The concept was cute, but I had a hard time keeping track of all the characters. The kids liked it a lot. They liked the heart-eating monster the best and were warning me ahead of time that "she is bad!" which was fun.

Astronaut Academy Re-entry was an interesting book, because it is based on a school that takes place in outer space. This book is mainly about love, but it is not a romance story. In this book, the school that the characters go to is infiltrated by a mysterious monster that wants you to fall in love with it and give it one of your hearts. So, because of this monster love is banned in the school and the students have to find a way to get it back. I gave this book five stars because it was funny

I didn't think a sequel could be as good as Roman's first Astronaut Academy graphic novel, ASTRONAUT ACADEMY: ZERO GRAVITY, which I found a lovely and hilarious book for young readers and a great starter book for readers interested in the graphic novel genre. However, ASTRONAUT ACADEMY: RE-ENTRY continues the experience of a fun and wholesome graphic novel geared to kids, complete with references to video games, anime, and sci-fi. And Roman has introduced my favorite characters in the Astronaut

We really got into reading graphic novels this last summer, and it seemed that every one that I reviewed here led me to another series or individual novel. It really has been fun reading them along with our girls and comparing our favorites. Unfortunately, this series was not one of them. I borrowed Astronaut Academy: Zero Gravity along with this book because they'd been highly recommended. I really had a hard time getting into both stories (although the first book flows into the other, similar
