Loved this. Was super entertaining. However, when I have kids they are not allowed to read this series before they develop critical thinking skills and they will read it with me because the gender stereotyping and heteronormativity in this book is, well, a lot.
Docking points for being a tad problematic and because it’s not completely perfect, though I found Soman’s writing improved from the first book. Also wtf happened to Agatha. She changed so much from the first book…
I hear this is commonly thought of as the worst book in the series so I’m excited to see where the story goes from here.
