A silly, fun, and funny good time.  Robbie is hilarious and unapologetically weird. Brandon is more cautious but wholeheartedly loves Robbie's weirdness. The pain play in the sex scenes was so good- especially the biting kink.

I binged all three Frat Wars books in a little less than five days. I absolutely recommend all of them (and read them in order, I think you'll regret it if you don't!). These books are fun and spicy and sweet; not as douchy as they look (although they're not NOT douchy either, lol). I love getting to see the main characters in other books, and each book ends with a (slight spoiler, no specifics)
chapter taking place at their reunion. I love how these three chapters piece together across the books and the reader gets to learn about what each couple is up to in the future.
.

A few of my favorite things about Master of Mayhem, specifically:
  • The entire premise of Robbie being bi-curious and asking all of his bros to let them touch his dick For Science™ is hilarious. Like in King of Thieves, there's no gross homophobia from the frat brothers, even when one of their friends is making this very weird request. 
  • Brandon and Robbie are so sweet together, in their own ways. My favorite sweet moments were
    Brandon staying for Christmas so he could hang out with Robbie & Robbie helping safety-manager Brandon have fun without feeling like he's shirking his responsibilities.
  • Loved the appearances of Chad & Bailey from King of Thieves! Great to see their relationship (and rivalry) still going strong :) 

representation: MLM, Bi!MC, unspecified pan/demi-ish MC, gay & bi side characters

rating subscales:
funny: 4/5

overall: 4/5

4.5 out of 5 ☆’s.

”We can stop kidding ourselves that this is nothing, because I think it might be everything.”

This was just the book that I needed to get me through the reading slump that I was beginning to fall into! :)

I want to start off by mentioning that I ended up enjoying this novel more than its predecessor (which I didn’t expect)! 

I really loved getting to be inside of Robbie and Brandon’s heads and seeing their perspectives on everything that unfolds in this novel (I enjoyed their characters immensely). 

My only issue with “Master of Mayhem” is that the ending felt a bit…rushed? I would’ve preferred for it to have been a bit more drawn out and for more feelings to be discussed before the whole ✨celebration✨ that happens at the end.

All in all — “Master of Mayhem” is the perfect palate cleanser if you’re looking for something on the shorter side that’s both cute and spicy!

I can’t wait to devour “Presidential Chaos” soon! ♡
