As satisfying as the first book. This time with pirates and kittens.

Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

This book series is so stressful. The protagonists are constantly getting snared into bigger and bigger traps... how are they possibly going to escape this time? In book 2, I continue to love the bromance. I missed characters from the first book, but the author introduced new characters that partially filled that void. The main caper was a different vibe from the first book, but that was also the point. Our protagonists had a lot of trauma to work out from book 1.

4.0

adventurous medium-paced

There were so many different threads happening in this plot that it felt a bit slow at times, but then the ending was a huge rush (in a good way). As much as I did enjoy the pirates, I missed having more of the con artist aspect as the focus of the story. But Locke and Jean are fabulous, and I am looking forward to the next book
