In Overthinking, the supernatural trauma meets the troubles of life as Steven, Freya and Troy's past refuses to go away!
When the "Grunsby Four" go to university, their superpower-related troubles have to take a backseat to the troubles of growing up and starting a new life: distance, new friends, doubts, bad decisions, lack of communication.
Freya and Steven were never the best at handling emotionally stressed situations, and if a certain nefarious emomancer is adding fuel to the fire...poor Troy, I felt sorry for him so many times for trying to be the voice of reason between two stubborn people who wouldn't deal with their problems but hide from them. Troy is the absolute sweetest!
Another theme of Overthinking is secrets. They lead to misunderstanding, resentment, manipulation and total disaster. DEMA was built on them and they have a habit of coming back to bite them.
The combination of university life, Steven and Troy growing in their relationship and the eerie sense that something is not right creates an explosive mixture which leads to a shocking finale!
November and So Over This can't come soon enough!

How am I supposed to wait until the next book?!?! A must read, I am throughly enjoying the universe David Fenne has created and the characters that reside in it.

While not quite the gayest thing I’ve ever read, like the first was, this was still an excellent book. Filled with humour, relatable characters and just so many jokes about being gay, I enjoyed reading it so much.
These books are so dark. While they’re written in a light-hearted and fun style, they encompass some really dark themes. This book ups the stakes even more and tears the friendship group we loved so much in the first book apart. It toyed with my emotions while at the same time, making me crack up with laughter.
The ending was a lot. It made me really really excited for the next book, with so many questions about what’s going to happen next.
I just can’t wait to read on!
