Thank you to Netgalley for a free eARC without expectation of review. All opinions are my own.

Man, Lex knocked it outta the park again!! I love this cast of chaos so much. Bridget stays my favourite I think though 👀 Mental health is portrayed so damn well in this one, the effects from the events at the end of the first book impact this one wholeheartedly. The characters are all quite different to the first book despite it only being a 13 month gap, but still themselves at their cores. A good show of grief, how it effects different people and how trauma manifests differently.

Can't say too much because as with Lex's books (at least Gwen and art/faint of heart) there's not too much going on plot-wise, it's very very character focused. This one does have more plot though, a PR road trip across the country hunting down Arthurian myths is a fantastic idea and works so well. A fair bit of action, lots of drama and very very queer.

The disability rep is pretty good, however one thing I would have loved to have saw more of was how Gabe uses his amputated arm. I was really sad to see it wasn't shown on the cover (arm goes under the table) - needs to be more limb difference rep on covers!!! - but while there's mentions of it through the book, like he has to ride a horse differently... It never is explained how he does those things now.

While I wouldn't call this a romcom as much as the first book, it's still very funny for sure. The romance is still there though, but their relationships are all on the rocks because not a single one of them is doing ok. If you liked the first book, I think you would quite enjoy this one.
