I loved and adored every single second of this. It's an absolutely PERFECT follow-up to the first book, expertly combining humour, angst, and tenderness. Monty and Percy have my entire heart and I would read infinite books about them and I am honestly just a mess every time I think about them. If you loved the first book - and particularly if you LOVE them both of as characters and loved the development of their relationship - then I absolutely cannot recommend this one enough.

this was cute! i wish it was longer though, and i do wish the smut was actually smut. but that’s okay.

i loved seeing percy and monty be able to just exist with one another, even if my jaw was on the floor from monty being insane and also the complete disasters that always seemed to be taking place. i’m also really happy we were able to see scipio support monty in a way he had never felt supported and welcomed before. 

i might reread, but it’s so short idk ☑️
