I enjoyed this but I wanted to enjoy it more. I think what pulled me out of the story every once in a while was the timeline of events and then the story not always connecting resulting in a more fluid flow, it felt jagged in some spots. Everytime we were reading about the biological things and the animals and the sciences, I was all for it, feed my little Bio heart! And I was hoping we got more of that, more of Wash doing his thing as a free man. I did enjoy the relationship between him and Titch but again if we got just a smidge bit more of the relationship I think it would’ve been a 4⭐️.
