I didn't enjoy Monty's character originally. I thought he was a selfish fuckboy alcoholic. Plus I hate in gay books when authors make the bi characters hook up with girls. If I wanted to read a hook up scene between a man and a woman I would have read a f/m romance rather than a m/m romance. Like it felt like Monty had more content with women than with his actual love interest Percy and I was very annoyed by that because as a gay person I want to read gay content which is the reason I read this book to begin with.
While Monty did have some funny moments, I didn't come around to Monty until towards the end of the book. I preferred both Percy and Felicity a lot more. for most of the book.
Also I found out the author is problematic so it also makes me also enjoy the book a bit less. I will try reading the others because I am interested to see more about the series and hopefully also get more Percy and Monty content but I will do so by also borrowing from the library like I did with this book.

Overall this is not deep reading by any means and there is some questionable language that wasn't really necessary, but it was a fast-paced, fun, entertaining spot of historical fiction. Such an adventure following Monty's trio around Europe as they constantly get in and out of trouble. Looking forward to continuing with the series.
