Heartsong by TJ Klune
5.0

A phenomenally beautiful story about remembering, mending bonds, and love in all its shapes and forms.

Robbie is wonderful protagonist, unflinching loyal and so certain of himself, that when he’s forced to question everything it throws him for a loop. He has this deep desire to belong that’s so painfully human, and in the midst of the Greek Creek pack, all those connections of blood and chosen family are magnified many times over.

This book is angsty, just like Ravensong, but there’s something cleansing about this story. Where before there was hurt, Heartsong is about trust and healing. And it’s worth every tear I shed over it.

Robbie and Kelly’s romance has been a long time coming, but this story treats us to something special—the thrill of new love and the sweetness of an established one. I won’t say much about the plot, but I’ve seen this storyline before and it’s so much more deserved coming from the third book in a series. All the feelings are heightened in this book and the characters are so familiar, even coming from a different point of view. It’s just about perfect—and that’s before we get to the ace rep! As always, TJ Klune gives Kelly room to be ace and be loved, with a man who respects that (even as he initially blunders about, trying to understand).

Gorgeous and easily my favorite book in the Green Creek series (so far). Somehow, each book is even more queer and loving than the last. How does he do it??

Also, thank goodness TJ Klune has moved away from series, because this ending almost killed me. Bring on Carter’s story!
