This book reminded me how much I adore Lev AC Rosen’s writing. It is just so beautiful and captivating. There were so many amazing lines that were so impactful and emotional, especially about queer books and community. Of course, I also love Andy so much and will never get enough of his series. In this book, Andy dives into the worlds of book selling, publishing, and the Mafia. I loved the premise of the gay book mailing service, with all its intricacies and dangers. The addition of the Mafia really took it to the next level. All that is to say that the plot was riveting and had me on the edge of my seat and Andy proved how brilliant he is as he solved this mystery. Of course, I loved the other characters as well. Gene owns my heart, and I loved everyone at the Ruby. But I must say Pat really stole the spotlight in this book, and I was thrilled for him. I struggled with Rose though, and some of the other more minor characters. I also predicted the ending for the most part. But overall this book was amazing and I highly recommend it!
