Me gusto mucho, me parece un buen final para la saga. Owen y Jason son muy intensos, los amo, pero eso influyo en sacarle una estrella, tipo dale, HACE 2 SEMANAS SE CONOCEN, aunque se muestra re bien el desarrollo me parece demasiado poco para que decidan renunciar a su lugar de residencia y literalmente vivan juntos. Salvo eso, me encantó, ame la trama secundaria que subyace al protagonista, es algo de verdad interesante y no parece solo algo que está ahí para dar profundidad, de verdad interpela todo el tiempo el hecho de haber sido dado en adopción y como eso le choca al ver su familia biológica.
No tengo muchas quejas, no es perfecto, ni el mejor ni de asomo, los primero libros se siguen llevando el premio a graciosos y llenos de amor, pero este no es una mala forma de terminar esta saga que me acompaña desde hace 3 años.

Sagittarius Saves Libra by Anyta Sunday is snarky, clever, and delightfully funny, but also honest, swoony, and a bit poignant. Jason and his recently discovered twin both have challenges at home, so decide to swap places and pretend to be each other. Of course, keeping up a ruse like that is harder than it seems. Told from Jason’s point of view, we get to watch him stumble, use more double entendres than one could imagine (all while never realizing what he’s saying,) and discover himself. Sunday’s writing is crisp and joyful, and I can’t wait to read more of her books.

The thing is, Anyta Sunday has written some of my favourite romances, but after Cancer Ships Aquarius, I was very not in the mood to read more from her. That one really did not work, not to mention I also was moving away from romance in general as they weren't really working for me. However, three years later, I was really craving a romance and I finally bit the bullet and read this one. It was very charming and very sweet; it was what I loved about Sunday's writing. THe fun characters, the good banter, the found-family feel. I really liked both characters, the love interest, Owen, was really sweet and a hunk. I liked the idea of found family and how Owen and Jason immediatly clicked. However, I will say that the ending could've used another thirty pages or more. The build-up to the reveal was great, but then it kinda crashed, with everything resolved in a couple of pages. I think a bit more breathing room could've done this wonders. How everything was resolved was rushed and I kinda wished that it would take Jason's real family a bit longer to come around; that initially it was just Owen's family accepted them. I also somewhat feel like that Alex's plotline isn't entirely solved, though maybe the author will revisit it in the next cluster of books (which will inclide Jason's twin, so I am curious what his romance will be). I admit that I was mostly glad that there were little to no eastereggs in this installment; the previous one was filled to the brim, making it feeling very forced. Overall, not my favourite in the series, but it made me feel very giddy. The smut was good, though the kinks were a little... underutilised? Like, there obvious was interest in hand-cuffs and pet-play, but it really didn't come to fruition. 

Loved this series when I read the first few installments a couple of years ago and was so tickled to see a new addition! Well worth the wait.

I love the trope of identical twins swapping places and this other pulled it off splendidly. Anyta Sunday is an auto-buy author for me and once again, she did not disappoint. Fun storyline with likable and memorable characters.
