I received a free copy of Tooned Out in exchange for an honest review. Tooned Out is a short story about a group of cartoon characters, who get “laid off” as their show gets cancelled. Written in a documentary style I actually had the characters come to life in my head as they were being interviewed in front of cameras regarding their lives and the events after their last episode. It is a cute story. Part of the writing seems repetitive but over all I think the characters are well created and fleshed out, and I think it was a good execution of a what-if-cartoon-characters-were-real scenario. What I liked best was the idea of cartoon characters that stay kids physically but grow up mentally. Had the Simpsons pop up in my head almost immediately. Poor Maggie :D All in all I’d recommend this story. It is a fun and very quick read.
