This book was a little underwhelming compared to the first, and the banter wasn't as funny. It was like Brie was the same as Cinnamon, except her quips were cheese themed instead of spice themed. It would have been nice to have their personalities and dialogue a little more distinct. 

Again, the conflict resolution felt rushed and I felt there was a bit of the miscommunication trope (sort of, don't let it deter you; it does make sense in this scenario, it was just very mildly irksome) but I still enjoyed the romance between Brie and Felix. 

I can't judge a short book too harshly for moving everything along quickly, even if it's a little too quickly, so the main reason I didn't give a better rating is because this book didn't feel different enough from the first book. It needed to have its own uniqueness to keep it from feeling boring and like it's basically just rehashing the same plot/conflict. 

It sounds like the 3rd book is a bit different, but I won't be reading it right away. I think I would have liked this second book better if I would have read some other books in between, maybe, so I'm hoping that will be the case if I wait a bit to read the 3rd book.
