Seokga, you finally met Kopiko.

A trickster god. A shaman. A gumiho. A k-pop idol. A baby god. A cruise ship. A murder. What a combo.

I loved the balance between the lighthearted and emotional moments in the book. I was worried about not remembering the first book's plot, but this does a good job of recounting what happened. I also liked the book tackling mental health and therapy. Plotwise, I was vibing with the characters trying to solve the mystery and avoiding it spilling out. The tropes hit just right, and the romance between Kisa and Seokga is sweet considering all the baggage from prior. Overall, this book was cute, and with that cliffhanger in the epilogue, I look forward to possibly another book.
