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!

I didn't like it as much as the first book. The first book had moments that made me feel so relaxed, so warm and giggly. This book didn't really have those moments. It was more tense, more sad. It was good. The plot was welthought out. But I just didn't feel the same bond with the characters. To much war. Gordo and Mark are fine. I was curiuous about their past. Now I know. A bit stupid. Heartbreaking. The big villain of this book was... boring? I snoozed at her speeches. Real trouble getting through it. Didn't see the contribution to the plot. I am going to read the third book. Hoping this one will be more lighthearted. I want to feel fuzzy again.

I just finished this book and I don’t know how to describe how this made me feel. One thing that I loved was Klune’s writing. In the moments that were intense and serious he was able to add humor to it. Humor that fit the characters and the situation at the same time. Klune has yet to disappoint me with his books and his writing style.
