This was a nice romp through some hippo-infested swamps. I felt it was the perfect length— everything moved at a brisk pace but there was time for relationships to develop and I was definitely invested. It left me wanting more in a good way.

How is it possible for me to love one author so much, another Sarah Gailey book that I loved. This was absolutely wild and full of rollicking Western fun but with hippos! I know it’s a novella so short but I still read the whole thing in one sitting (it’s about double the length I would usually do in one sitting). I am craving more books with the exact energy/vibes that the Hero/Houndstooth relationship has, good god I need more of that in my veins, it was GLORIOUS. The FLIRTING. This is the shit!!! 🙌
