ais5775 's review for:
The Guncle Abroad
by Steven Rowley
This was such a warm, funny, and emotional follow-up to The Guncle. I didn’t realize how much I missed Patrick (and Maisie and Grant!) until I was back in their world. The European adventure adds a fun new backdrop, and Patrick’s commentary is just as sharp and delightful as ever.
There were a few pacing issues in the middle—some of the travelogue stuff dragged a bit and a couple of the new characters felt a little underbaked—but overall, this hit a lot of the same emotional beats I loved from the first book. It’s still full of heart, grief, growth, and love, with that perfect balance of humor and tenderness that Rowley does so well.
Solid 4 stars. Definitely worth the read if you loved the first.
