I liked Arc 2 even more than the first, which was also great! These books shine through their characters so I really enjoyed getting to know them better after being introduced to them in the first book. Loved the exploration of aroace identity, neurodivergence and polyamory.

I'm quite lucky I read book 1 at a point in time when book 2 was already out and I could just go on to read the next one. But now I'll have to wait for the next part. RIP to me.

If you liked book 1, you'll probably like book 2, but I want to mention that it deals with trauma even more than the first one, in my opinion, so proceed with caution.

I like how this sequel gave a lot of characters from book 1 more time to shine, especially Eva, while at the same juggling newly introduced characters.

Also, I feel very galaxy brain for deducing one of the plot twists. Or maybe RoAnna has a galaxy brain because they put the clue for it in there, you decide.
