Though I felt like this book is the weakest of the series so far, it still had what I love about these books (the fantastical world-building and the great cast of characters that you get so attached to) The world gets expanded a lot in in this addition to the series which is super exciting for what it means for the upcoming books, I just found the pacing was a bit more drawn out in this book, despite it being the shortest in length, but I really enjoyed the callback to

Nancy from the first book

and the new additions to our adorable found family!

I will never stop saying how amazed I am by Seanan’s brain. I can’t comprehend the universe she created, it makes no sense, and yet I love it so much

I love getting deeper into this world. I love reading a bunch of kids who are accustomed to living in weird worlds deal with weird worlds that they don't like. It's just fun and darkly whimsical and I'm a fan.

This was by favorite in the series so far for sure! I really enjoyed revisiting characters from book one with some additional new characters and a new plot. I also appreciated the additional worldbuilding and the expanded thoughts on the whole portal fantasy system that’s going on in these books.

Some of the diversity felt a bit flat to me? Like I get that these books are too short for complex characterization, but Cora in particular felt more like Good Fat Representation than she did like a fully fleshed-out character. But I still really enjoyed the characters and the world(s) and the story and will be continuing with the series for sure!
