A delightful read. It’s hard to judge this reading this directly after loving the first book.
I particularly liked the interactions and authentic greyness with parents and among the secondary characters. I also liked the final act didn’t hinge on a grand gesture.
Second read for 2024 (September this time) and I really enjoyed it again. Upgraded to five stars. The flaws of the dramatic reveal in rochesters room aren’t significant to demerit it. I like that the sex scenes aren’t indulgent and help move the character development along. The dual POV in third person works very well.
