I love this book. It may be tied with #13 for my favourite Tobias book. It's just so epic. (Seriously, Tobias always gets the best stuff to narrate. No filler for that boy.)

PS. Wheel of Fortune flub?

[buffyangellvr23]

Tobias hears someone's TV snd there's a line about "the wheel landed on a $5000 space and some idiot bought a vowel." You don't buy a vowel after a spin, you call a consonant. If it's there and you get the money, then you can buy a vowel.

Oh. Eh. That's not really that interesting of a KASU, though.

If Tobias calls them an idiot for it, it's not a KASU. It's an in-universe screwup. If you mistakenly thought that you got money for vowels, then calling a vowel after landing on a high-dollar amount would be a GREAT strategy, since there's at least one vowel in EVERY WORD. That's probably the logic behind having to buy the vowels, come to think of it...
