This series is getting darker and darker as it goes on, and putting more harsh consequences on the relatively happy, bouncy characters. This episode is notable for a relationship between an asexual (ace) character and his fated mate.

I listened to this heading to and from camp so it was quick to get through it. I love the narrator of this audiobook because the different voices help me keep track of the different characters. I will say that this feels like a book where if you miss a detail about an event/character, it can leave you confused. I was worried that too much time had lapsed since I read the last book in this series but it all came back to me. I don’t think this one pulled on my heart strings quite like the first or second books, but I really liked it regardless!

I loved this book. It was painful but sweet. I loved that Kelly is ace and not really into sex and that doesn't magically change. The process of the storytelling and the way the story was revealed was very well done. Klune is an amazing writer.
