More fun antics

Much of the same as what I expected from reading the first book. There were some interesting references to various media/history that are confusing, but from the native Japanese speakers I've asked, such references seem to go over their heads as well.

From my experience watching the anime I was worried that the novel would feel too slow paced as it largely only covers the SOS団's production of the movie for the 文化祭 but I found the story to be sufficiently interesting throughout to keep me interested.

This book is a light novel published by 角川スニーカー文庫, but there is also a 角川文庫 version of the novel that has slightly larger font and removes illustrations. The 角川文庫 version has largely the same content, but in place of the author's あとがき there is a cute essay by an idol from 乃木坂46 profoundly discussing what the Suzumiya Haruhi series means to her.
