My Rating: ❤️❤️❤️❤️.5

Reading Order: Interconnected standalones. You should probably read book 2 first, but you could read this one first. It just spoils some things in the second book.

General Thoughts: I don't read a ton of novellas, but this is a novella at it's best. It felt full and rich and added to the story. I had been wanting to read Reggie's story, and so I'm so glad we got it. I loved all the diversity and representation in this one--disability, neurodivergency, multiple cultures, and more.

This was a cute, fun, fast-paced read. I loved this one. Both the characters were exceptionally well crafted. I loved seeing how their brains worked. It also doesn't ruin other characters in prior books, which is also a plus for me. Loved it!

Spice Meter: ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥 It was there.
