The first 1/3 of this is rather boring as it follows mole around, who is not an interesting character for a protagonist. He would be a great friend however. Then the story moves on to the self-centered toad, and the book really picks up. From there on out it is pretty interesting as toad goes from one adventure to another, each made of his own mistakes.

I can't wait for the middle-class English TERFs to remember how much of this book Toad spends in drag and yet he doesn't try to trans a single person 😂

Anyway, this is a book about that one friend who won't stop getting into shenanigans no matter how much you try to talk sense into them, and perhaps also how the landed gentry can do whatever the fuck they want because they've got Money and Status.

This was a cozy read, and I could see why it's enjoyable.  The Rat and Mole are good wholesome friends.  The Badger is serious and responsible.  And the Toad is a menace.  But their shenanigans and little adventures were pretty wholesome.
