the greatest book ever written. soul crushing. heartbreaking and life inducing all at once. ruined and changed my life simultaneously.

every character is so beautifully real and whole that it's impossible not to love the foxes. the romance, despite being a subplot, is one of the best written love stories of all time. this book will crush you one minute and inspire you to become a new person the next. despite the heavy topics and content that is covered there is an unrelenting theme of hope, perseverance, and improving as a person. the dynamics between the foxes and the love they share will always be so so special to me.

Best of the 3 in my opinion, but somehow even more ridiculous than the other two but still very compelling.  What a time it was reading these... anyway now I know why everyone talks about this series and my curiosity is satisfied

Well, I'm done with this series... And I miss them already.

Reading 'All for the Game' was simultaneously the most unhinged and gayest experience of my life. It felt like a fever dream.

These books have changed me on some deep level that I cannot explain. The brainrot is real. Critical thinking? I don't know her. I'm here purely for the vibes, and they are immaculate.

'The King's Men' had me HOOKED. I honestly couldn't wait to dive in and see what was unfolding with all the Foxes' various dramas. 

It actually had me gasping out loud in places (the bloody message on the mirror!?), and giggling and kicking my feet in others (Andrew and Neil sneaking in make-out sessions wherever they could 🥰). 

The high-stakes happenings were sublime in all their fanfic-y goodness. The countdown had me genuinely on edge as the number reduced each day to an unknown event that couldn't possibly end well for Neil.

I was also genuinely so pumped about the team's continuing success in Exy! Wymack's speech at the final game in particular had me grinning like a fool. That's their dad, y'all!

And Andriel. Oh, my babies. Their constant "yes or no?" - CONSENT KINGS. And the pair's ever-maturing conversations? We love to see that GROWTH ❤️ Who knew they'd become the healthiest example of a relationship in this whole mess!? 

And can we talk about the infamous shower scene? Because it had me FERAL. The tenderness Andrew takes with Neil? God, my heart 😭 The sex? Whew. They are ridiculously hot and I can't get enough of them 🔥

The inevitable acceptance from everyone that the Foxes really are a family is also wonderful ❤️ (Though I'd really love if Aaron could leave his fucking homophobia at the door, please and thank you 😒).

I don't know what kind of crack Nora put in these pages. I just know that I love these characters so much and officially can't stop thinking about them (especially Andriel - they're in my heart forever now 🥹).

And yes, I will now be reading ALL of the fanfic.

This trilogy? Absolutely insane. Genuinely impossible to recommend. I cannot wait to reread it.
