![]() ![]() ![]() Overall, I very much enjoyed this book!Ģ) Love the characters, setting, and plot. Merle's narrative tone had me laughing outright at places I don't know many authors who can use phrases like "the cockles of his balls" without distracting me from the mood! But the turns of phrase were very entertaining. ![]() Watching Tom inadvertently put idiots in their places just by being his unassuming, sweet self was lovely. The epilogue ending did feel a little too good to be true in some ways, but it almost didn't matter because I wanted that extra cherry on top for these characters, and I ended up wondering happily about how their lives would further play out. I appreciate that though character conflicts were resolved to satisfy the story, they were not all fully tied with a bow, which gives the story a certain realism. The characters were very likable what's more, I didn't like them all at first, but by the end, I had gotten to know the real people behind the actions, and that is quite rewarding as a reader. Info from the other books is referenced, but effectively, without overly summarizing or depending upon that info to follow the plot of this story. 1) I especially liked that though it is part of a series, this book stands very well on its own. ![]()
