When I started reading this series, I had no idea how much I would come to deeply love these siblings. The reaction I had to reuniting with an older Monty and Felicity, and their loved ones, was much stronger than I expected. Each of them is unique, and each of their books feels fresh due to their narrative voices despite their adventures all involving love, adventure, ships, far off destinations, and a bit of magic. I remember I did struggle with Monty's perspective in his book at the start before he has some character growth, and I also struggled sometimes with Adrien, although for different reasons. If you have a hard time reading stories in the perspective of someone with severe anxiety, you may struggle as well. As with the previous books in the series, although the protagonist has blatant flaws and struggles, they feel reel and lovable and you get swept in with how invested in their well-being you become. I am eager to read more from this author and I'm so glad I picked up this series on a whim.
