Mackenzi Lee has punched me in the face with all three of these books in a way that's made me examine how I perceive the world. I love it. I love the glimpses (through his anxiety) we see of how the other characters view Adrian. These booka are so fun, and Adrian perfectly embodies the youngest sibling, I adore him. I also appreciate the connection he made with the other younger brother, Saad.

I do think that this one fell a little short in terms of character development, compared to the first two books. I kept waiting for it to dive into more detail about how he learned to live with his anxiety, but it ended up leaving that as more of an afterthought. I wish we'd gotten a bit more of that, but I still enjoyed it.

possibly the best depiction of anxiety ive ever read. some of the lines were thoughts from my own head. the writing was also incredible. and i loved being with monty again <3 i would have loved to see percy and louisa’s reactions when they got back to london, but this was still pretty much perfect.

This might be my favorite of the series. I didnt expect the third book to be such a time skip to Adrian but honestly it provides a lovely view into how the characters I previously fell in love with continued in their lives. Though I wish there was ten more books spanning the time skip. Adrian’s experience with mental illness is explored in detail and how it affects him on their daring adventure. At times the descriptions were very intense and I had to put down the book because it was too close to home, but overall it was a fantastic portrayal of anxiety disorders and OCD. I am so proud of Adrian and I really enjoyed watching him develop in this book.

Its a swashbuckling adventure and the main characters mental health struggles so often resemble my own it made me feel So Seen and the way Adrians character progresses from beginning to end is so on point and hopeful.

I thought the second book in this trilogy would remain my favourite, but this one topped it! Adrian's struggle with his mental health are so relatable and understandable, and make him probably my favourite Montague. I also loved Felicity and Monty in this, and think the time jump and the character growth was handled really well. Overall, an excellent book!
