So the plot here is deceptively simple: Three elvish girls go on holiday to a orcish nudist colony - two specifically to get laid, and one who is in for a shock as she doesn't know where she's going at all. While on holiday they all get laid. What complicates the plot is that each elf is dealing with personal issues which are explored through their *interactions* with the orcs they come across - so really this isn't just a story about some pretty massive size differences (it's that too), it's a story about class, toxic relationships, sizeism, identity and belonging. And it doesn't necessarily end happily for our elves.
So I loved every page of this, even though at times I felt really anxious about where the stories were going. There were a couple of intimate scenes where I wasn't 100% sure I understood the logistics of what was happening - like how all the body parts were lining up given the size differences involved, but honestly does it matter? Nope. I felt a bit sad each time Ris had an encounter as it didn't honestly feel like she was enjoying herself -. And I'm still worried about what's happening with Silva . Lurielle's story was the most complete and the most satisfying from a romance perspective.
Some content warnings - the book features.
On to Parties!

she doesn't have a HEA either so I'm glad I can immediately read Parties to find out what happens nextSpoiler
as while Tate sounds like a hot dream he also sounds like he might be a toxic mess and poor girl has got enough on her plate as is. Their relationship is definitely more of a HFNSome content warnings - the book features
Spoiler
intrusive thoughts about weight, body shaming, abusive relationships (both on and off page) and obviously a solid amount of sexual contentOn to Parties!

I love these characters and want to go on a girls weekend with them. 3 stars is only a reflection of the fact that I'm less into snapshot/slice of life style stories. But I do love this author. She gets 7/5 stars.

This was an okay read. It told the story of 3 girls going on a trip to a nearby city to have some fun. The content was nice but it kept alternating between each story so you couldn’t really get invested in any of them. I wasn’t expecting so many FTB scenes or to see it glossing over events.

Such a cute book! I actually liked this one much more than I did MGMF and feel that it was organized a lot better, too. While there are 3 girls featured in this book, only 2 walk away in a relationship, so be warned that all of the chapters will either be from Lurielle or Silva’s point of view.

I was bored. I might not be in the mood for this at the moment. I'll try again later because I see it recommended quite a bit on Reddit.

Delightful romp with little to no angst. I am deeply invested in this now and need to find out what happens to everyone.

❤️ I liked it — intrigued enough by the couples so far to continue reading the series~
💔 the multiple POVs were a little confusing, but I got through
