Review Summaries

"Agents Kay and Elle of the Men in Black are on the trail of man-eating alien plant like creatures. They have come to Earth for a nice relaxing vacation with all the humans they could eat. They just didn't expect the Men in Black to be there. A very funny if sometimes intense but very worthy sequel to Men in Black. Has that same lighthearted feel in the midst of something really bizaar, which leads to fits of laughter at the jokes that are cracked, and the situations that the heros are put through. While not a very thought provoking book, it is certainly worth the couple days it takes to read, and will stick with you long after."
Jacob Knudsen, Resident Dean Wesely Smith Scholar
