This was heckin' cute.
I've enjoyed this series, though certainly some installments have been more to my taste than others. This one is right up there. It's quieter than the other books, which sometimes got a bit frenetic as the finale approached. This one is much sweeter and slower, and I adored both of the main characters.
Of course, other characters we've come to know and love make guest appearances, particularly David and Noah. There were also some delightful side characters specific to this books... Anjali is an MVP.
So much of this series revolves around having to hide, which I have mixed feelings about, but there's also a huge emphasis on queer joy and found family. I wish parts of the ending had been a bit more fleshed out (for example, there's a dramatic moment at literally 95% of the book that quickly fizzles out) but I liked spending time with these characters, and their largely relatable problems, and their spicy sketching sessions. There sort of is a 3rd act breakup, but it's more like a reasonable conflict than a massive, overblown miscommunication.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for letting me journey back into the world of the Curious Fox. My inane ramblings are left voluntarily.
