3.5 stars!!!

I was a bit confused at the start of this because I didn't realize the whole book would follow Gordo, and I thought we would go back to following Ox at some point. The confusion was completely my fault, but it did lower my excitment for this book. This book is heartbreaking but somehow wholesome at the same time, which is something T.J. Klune does so well. I think the thing that lowered my rating so much is the fact that I had read too many books in between the first book and this one so it took me a while to become familiar with the characters again. The book kind of just throws you into what's happening and doesn't do much to remind the readers of where things left off in the previous book so it took me a while to get back into it. The “big bad” of this book was super interesting and I would be interested in reading more about them but I do think this book was a good set up for the future books. Not saying that it suffers from “middle book syndrome” because the action in this book was exciting, but it does have other things going on outside of the main plot (which would be spoilers to talk about). Overall, I love T.J. Klune's writing and I love the world and characters he crafts. It was cool to read the story from another character's perspective and I hope the rest of the series follows that.
