Even more entertaining than the first book, probably because I already have some background of the world and how it works.

Further develops the idea of characters entering and leaving books, including introducing an organization responsible for the training of characters and humans who have this knack. (I am in love with Miss Havisham.)

The humor is going strong and there's a little bit of goofy, self-awareness.

“Anything is possible right now. We're in the middle of an isolated high-coincidental localized entropic field decreasement”
“We're in a what?”
“We're in a pseudo-scientific technobabble.”

There are a lot of plot lines, all converging on Thursday at once. It makes for an exciting pace, although at times I wondered if it wasn't a bit much.
