“I’m an adult who does adult things, like taxes and laundry and being sad for no reason.”

"It's okay to not be okay, as long as it doesn't become all we know."

I love TJ Klune, and this book did not disappoint. The only reason it gets four stars instead of five is because it was so very pointedly politicized, which, I suppose, many people might appreciate, but I liked the nuances of the first one better, saying so much without blatantly stating it... repeatedly.

Other than that, I loved the development of the family! One of my biggest complaints about romance novels is that they always end after the couple finds their way to each other, and you don't get to see them simply *be* together. This second installment gives us that, as well as the addition of a new character who is just exactly what I didn't realize was missing from the first one! I always enjoy a good found-family story, and in that regard, this story is a gem.
