A review by squishies
The Final Game by Caimh McDonnell

4.0

4.5 stars

My life has been consumed by Animal Crossing New Horizons. While I don't regret the time I've spent playing, not being able to read has been a bit weird (whenever I try, I can't seem to concentrate for very long).

Most of this book was actually read last night, finishing at 2am because I could not put it down. Gods I love how McDonnell writes - it's just so effortlessly energetic and fun.

The Money Games was amazing - I definitely would have tuned in! I realised Bridget is not really my cup of tea (though honestly, she pairs great with Paul and their relationship is pretty solid, so she's far from Miranda in [b:The Spirit Thief|8097637|The Spirit Thief (The Legend of Eli Monpress, #1)|Rachel Aaron|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1388474296l/8097637._SY75_.jpg|12861382] to me) and I found myself wanting to know more what Phil and (poor) Jimmy were up to.

I've really missed Phil
Spoilerand am so glad that him and Jimmy finally got along - that kitchen scene after Phil saving Jimmy was super cute and touching

As always, under all that madcap situations, the plot lines are still solid and pretty interesting.
