Completely worth the minor cost of subscribing to the author’s Patreon. It’s a sweet, beautiful book with a lot of angst and a lot of love. I particularly loved Sam’s arc as he grew to accept his autism. But why are my boys allergic to good decisions

Thank you, CG Drews, for thoroughly RUINING me with this trilogy. It's so amazing, and these messy characters are so so beautiful, and I love them with my whole heart.

It’s over. It ended. No thoughts, only screaming.
I wish, I really wish I could give a coherent explanation of this series and what I love about it, but I fear it is impossible.
As much as I love this series and would read it forever if I could, I do truly believe this book had the perfect ending and was a brilliant conclusion to the series. It wrapped everything up so well, it gave us (and them) hope.
Honestly, I was so scared to read the ending but I keep thinking about it now (even almost two weeks later) and it's one of the most satisfying endings to a story or series I've seen.
