Not that it wasn’t good and I’m definitely not complaining that we got more of Arthur and Finley, but…idk. The characters feel real and no one is “a stupid teenager” for the sake of being a stupid teenager. There are a lot of YA contemporaries that make me feel like maybe I could actually age out of YA contemporary soon, but this series is not one of them. I got choked up at some of the advice Esha gave Finley close-ish to the end, and it had other really meaningful moments as well. But at least this was written well and didn’t feel one dimensional? I just really liked the dynamics in this and how everything developed. Even Bronwyn, who is your classic mean girl, felt well done. I also appreciated that every character felt very real.
I liked seeing the “after happy ever after” kind of plot, and it made me ship Arthur and Finley way more by the end of this one than I even did by the end of the first book. Such an incredibly sweet duology! I honestly didn’t understand why it needed a sequel, because the first book was great as a standalone, but book 2 actually turned out to be worthwhile.
