These lovely lovely men! This destroyed me, and I want so much more. 

This had me right from the beginning - meeting Jo, and there was no turning back after that. My heartstrings were painfully tugged at with every turn of this story. I’m so attached and I know I’ll be back in a couple of months for a comfortably lovely reread.

The sweetest queer community brought me back to the apartment building of One Last Stop, but tenfold. I just loved the way all these characters mingle together in great ways and I never wanted it to stop! I’m super excited to read the next book - David and Noah?!?!?? 

I loved both Charlie and Miles and their respective complexities and eccentricities. My favourite scene by far was Miles’ first time at the Curious Fox and man I hope these two get some page time and love in the next one! 

I listened to the audio book version narrated by Tommy Hawthorne, which was lovely, but I think I might have to get my hands on some nice physical copies for this series.
