The first instalment of the series was obviously better but as far as sequels go this is actually quite solid. Hated the ending tho, it’s like she made it different for the sake of it being different.

This was fun! Despite the stakes being relatively low it made me think a lot about the expectations of marriage put on LGBTQ people and the assumption that a relationship is only ‘serious’ if it ends in marriage.
Hall has a funny voice and there were multiple times where Lucien’s internal monologue made me laugh, for example:
‘Definitely not crying, I threw away my takeaway container and realised I’d thrown the fork away with it. In retrospect, that might have explained why I had so few forks.’
This was very fun

This book would have been perfectly fine if not for the ending. I enjoyed the characters but the ending made it feel like a step backwards for character development for Oliver and Luc. Not the biggest waste of time for me reading a book but there are better books I could have read.
