I still really enjoyed this the second time through! The characters are just a delight to read about, and the audiobook narrator does such a good job making different voices for all of the characters. It really immerses you in the story!

Thank you LibroFM for making this a free ALC for the month! Definitely one of my most anticipated books of the year, and it lived up to all of my expectations. I loved that we got to see Arthur's point of view in this one, getting a glimpse into what his past was truly like. Him and Linus together are so sweet, and I just love their little found family.

We get an addition to the family in this one, David the yeti, who fits right in with the other kids and is also a delight. Klune expands his fantasy world, and I enjoyed the additions that he made overall. There are emotional moments, happy moments, and everything in-between. You'll laugh, you'll cry, your heart will melt. 

With all the same cozy vibes at the first one, you'll definitely want to pick this one up!
