No comments. Wonderful book, I had a blast.
Audiobook version (which I used to follow along) is also amazing quality, clean recording and loved all the different voices.

Almost as much fun as its predecessor! Love a good story where a character has - to quote Tangled - to find a new dream and everything works out but not exactly the way they’d thought but it’s okay :’) I love Felicity Montague so much!!!!!! I love Joanna and Sym and Monty and even Platt as a character!!!!!!!!! Most of all I really love found family!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't think I was entirely in the mood for this book when I read it but I still found it enjoyable. I admittedly ended up skimming a lot of it partially because of the medical content, but also because I

I'm really glad this is a book that challenges the "Not Like Other Girls" attitude without forcing Felicity to become more feminine than she is comfortable with, instead simply learning to understand girls can be intelligent and feminine and learning to support her more feminine friends. 

I'm also really happy for Felicity being aroace rep, struggling with society's expectations for her to marry and bear children, but not being forced into a relationship at the end of the book.
That said I hope Sim gets to come back in future installments with a girlfriend of her own. I won't deny she and Felicity had some chemistry, but I'm glad that no side resented the other after discovering their orientations were incompatible and they were still able to be friends. I think that takes skill to pull off and the author landed it well.
