Despite foreshadowing (red herrings, I suppose) to the contrary, not a whole lot happens in this. Fran's carnival family shows up, she gets married to Johnny, and that's all she wrote. The final line of the story was pretty charming though.
Anyway, this story was fine. It was a story that needed to be written if we're going to get the full story of Fran and John Healy, but I did spend most of the story wondering when the shoe would drop.

Carnivals creep me out. They just do. And while it was fun to think of Fran as an ex-circus performer, having that ex-circus show up at the Healy home for her wedding . . . was creepy.
Creepy and ominous.
Could've done without this one, I think . . . o.O

Jonathan and Fran are about to get married, and not a moment too soon, considering Fran is 8 months pregnant. While they are about to finally settle down (as we always knew they would) Fran is having some doubts about her future.
The mice are back and they are awesome as ever! They're my favorite characters for sure! The story is nice but not very exciting, no monsters or action, but there is some foreshadowing of darker times to come.

"Gods bring the Heavens to us. Priestesses bring the Gods to Heaven. So we thank you. You have brought about the continuation of our faith."
The Aeslin mice worship the Healy family-religiously (no, literally). I haven't gotten to the story that explains why yet, but I'm very much looking forward to it. This is the cute story about Fran and Jonathan's wedding.

Forever onward I truck, as I work through my seriously massive pile of short stories to read. So far, it feels like I've barely made a dent – and I'm still on one author! At least I'm enjoying what I've been reading, so I can hardly complain.
Married in Green is the next installment in Fran and Johnny's story. Those fans who have read the series already know very well where the story will end up, but it has still been a delight to read about.
The moment has finally come. Johnny and Fran are finally getting married, and there are a few (thankfully pleasant) surprises in store before the day is done.
This was a light and fun short story to read, though admittedly, it did have a few darker hints woven throughout. Still, I think it's the happiest/lightest novel of their story so far and has several really sweet moments throughout.

I do really enjoy the shorts about the Price family, although…I don’t know? I think I’d be a lot more into them if I read them in a big anthology. Because while I like the little glimpses into Frances’s and Jonathan’s life together, stories like this one are very much breather stories and don’t really grab me as much. Not that they’re bad, they’re really good and sometimes you need a breather story. I just feel like that if I read these all in a row or in one big collection, I’d be a little more invested in it. But still, I liked this, I liked getting more into Frances’s backstory (especially since I haven’t read the first of the InCryptid shorts), and I liked the hint that things are going to go south for the Prices, but again, I’m not feeling the whole weight of it yet. But still, really well written and a nice glimpse into the Price family’s lives.
