Watch me freak out at nearly 5am because I just read this book in five hours and it was absolutely AMAZING??? Not that I'm surprised at its quality but I am surprised at the speed with which I read it.
Oh my god. Oh my god! Oh my fucking god!!!!!!
I mean, to everyone who read this book on the day it came out and the following two(????) weeks and kept it a secret that it was a middle book (which it very obviously is), is just fucking awesome of you! With the announcement of a third installment I don't have to worry, but damn, everyone else did so good on not spoiling that!
There were just so many moments, and feelings, and Simon, and Baz, and Penelope, and Baz, and Agatha, and Baz!!!!!!
MY ENTIRE REVIEW OF THIS BOOK COULD LITERALLY JUST BE EXCLAMATION POINTS AND THAT WOULD BE ENTIRELY FUCKING TRUE.
Our beloved characters are so out of their depth here and it brings forward the most wonderful qualities. Simon shines, his seven years of getting alive out of every life or death situation ever is so obvious in this, I mean his skill!! How can this dude even be thinking he's any kind of worthless when he can literally do THAT.
And OH THE FEELS. First of all, I love our friend group. Secondly, I was CONSTANTLY wondering who the fuck I could trust in this entire book because everyone in America is SO. SUSPICIOUS. ALL. THE. TIME.
The humor was on point at all times, so many absolutely hilarious moments! Baz getting a suitcase dropped on him?? I LITERALLY NEVER WOULD HAVE THOUGHT- just, there was so many funny moments and lines. The way Baz so dryly delivers ‘I am every sort of under the weather.' gives me liiiiiiiiiiiife.
I'm very much having a hard time really expressing my feelings about this book but know that I really really really really really really REALLY loved it, okay, I REALLY LOVED IT, I DON'T KNOW HOW TO SAY THIS ENOUGH, IT WAS JUST SO WONDERFULLY GOOD AND I ABSOLUTELY NEED THE NEXT ONE ASAP.
