Wow I'm speechless!!!!

I love me a good "found-family" story. Also, Andrew and Niel, yes yes yes. I need more from these two. Such an interesting pair to read about.

A lot of things happened, quite fast-paced but in a good way. I would have loved a bit more details about their relationship but I'm just greedy that way. 😄

》Ten-nine, Foxes' favor—Kevin had scored in the last two seconds of the game.《

The series overall: 3/5 ⭐︎
This book: 3.75/5 ⭐︎

I really, REALLY, wanted to love this series. I've seen so many fantastic fanarts and people praising it. But sadly, I just don't really get it. The characters were flawed, which should make them interesting, but it didn't really. I feel like nothing really happens for like 80% of the books. The remaining 20% are just really intense, and I feel like the series lack a balance.

The thing that kept me going was the fact that the third book was supposed to be really good, but then it fell flat for me. I thought that the book would be more tense and angsty - and it was, just not for like 80% of the book. Neil was kidnapped, tortured, and saved, all in the SAME chapter?? I also don't really get the whole hype about 'Andreil'. I feel like they're toxic for each other? Maybe I'm misinterpreting things, but a LOT of the characters are just not very likeable (except the girls, I stan the girls). 

Anyways, I like the concept of the series, but I do think that I've been gaslighted by my Twitter to enjoy the series more than I actually would have otherwise. With all that said, it's not a series I would necessarily recommend, but it was a nice read to pass the time.

The Foxes are horrible little bastards. I would die for them.
