i live for the found family concept, and i loved to see the progress the foxes made during this series and especially this last book. the king’s men is probably the best book out of all three of them. i found myself relating to more than one of the foxes in many occasions, which could be a big red flag but let’s just ignore that for the time being. i also liked how there was humour inserted into many scenes in a way that didn’t make it seem forced.

however, i still think that these books are not good representaation nor is the language (slurs, etc.) that good. i do not support nora sakavic, at all, so therefore it’s really important to read these books critically. the stars don’t reflect my opinion about nora’s writing.

A fitting end to the series. The book equivalent of purely addictive junk food.

I pity the next book I read, because I know I'm going to be in a dark, deep well of book hangover over this series for quite some time. Nothing will live up to it, until finally something does. I tried to make this final one last, but just couldn't, just could not put it down in my hunger to go through all those tiny little hidden ways Andrew opens up to Neil and lets him in. This book is like the vindication of the world's longest slow burn that was book one - I mean, the moment Andrew picks Neil at the airport pretending to be Aaron is a dead giveaway on the fact Andrew has it for Neil, but the author made me thirst for it for soooo long I was shredded open by the time they first kiss.
I still don't like Kevin, and I still don't like Neil - it's not that I don't like him, I just don't swoon for him except that he is so good to Andrew and so perfect for him - and I still think Nicky is annoying. Aaron is still my second fave (must be something to the Minyards) but nothing, no one beats Andrew. I have to hand it over to the author how can anyone write such a rich, complex character when this same character barely says a word the entire series. The glimpses we get of Andrew's past help stitch together the history of what's made him this way, and more - they are a map to show readers that Andrew is not quite what he was made to be by his fellow Foxes during each book. There is just so much more to him, and I, who often fall into the black hole of wanting to see things that aren't there, for once feel vindicated for reading through book one thinking of Andrew the exact same way he turned out to be. Doing everything he could so he guaranteed the safety of the few people he loves, being desperate not to lose those people, disregarding himself because his life is pointless and has no value except if his saving the lives of those he deems worthy...boy, he's just the absolute most.
Meaning I would KILL for a book in Andrew's POV. D'ya hear this, Nora Sakavic? I need this story from Andrew's POV. Like, yesterday.
