alright.

i know what you're thinking.

i know what i'm thinking.

i loved gentleman's guide. i love monty and percy. i love their relationship. i love their story.

so why did i not love this with every fiber of my being?

i think this was just a way for mackenzi to a) prolong their story by a whole 100 pages, and b) to sell more books.

i suppose half of me is completely fine with the fact that nothing really happened here. i could read monty's perspective and be content, always. i am also ok with the fact that nothing happened for the sake that monty and percy weren't ready for anything to happen when it came down to it, and that's totally okay!

except - that's. really all there is. just their cute banter, felicity's soft mom-judging, cameos by characters we love, and monty and percy's love being semi-wholesome. that's it.

if you're into that, then this is for you. if you're expecting this to be a necessity to the plot of the montague siblings series, then i'm sorry to disappoint you :')

If you liked the 1st book this is an awesome extended epilogue for Percy and Monty. Just as charming and funny as the Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virture.

“You deserve a reward for all I put you through”
“You’re my reward.”
“What a rotten reward I am.”
“Not to me.”

Mackenzi Lee you do not know what the Pylades-Orestes parallels have done to me. right because i’ll take care of you it’s rotten work not to me not if it’s you and oh look at that i’m crying
