What Abigail Did That Summer by Ben Aaronovitch
5.0
Abigail and the foxes are the BEST part of this series for me and I loved this story most out of all the books I've read so far. I think Abigail's firmly my favorite character now, and I hope we get to have a lot more of her in future books - either sharing the spotlight with Peter, or as the central character of her own spinoff adventures.
I think she's got a gotta-do-it-alone approach that seems to soften a bit by the end, and I love that she warms up to the foxes more. I also really liked Indigo's character and learning about why the foxes lost their voices and then got them back. This is more of the kind of magic I want from this series! It feels very fresh and original. False Value had themes that were a little too rooted in the real world of tech and AI for me at the moment.
