I don't know what TJ Klune puts in these books that makes them so hard to put down, but I listened to almost this entire thing yesterday. What I like about this series is that way that Klune weaves in backstory to characters we've already come to love in each book, giving us a more rounded view of this found family as a whole. Plus, the narration in the audiobook is just so good!

4.5

While not quite as strong as the first book, this is still a riveting sequel full of angst and creative world-building. I came for Mark and Gordo, but I actually fell more in love with Team Human and Kelly and Carter’s sibling bond. TJ Klune writes found family really REALLY well.
