This was quite short, but a pleasant read. The language is very intelligent without being pretentious. I like how sensitive Alexander is (but hides this aspect of himself). And optimistic Emily as a child playing with her friends was super cute. On the same night, I had also read "Hard Bargain" which is a bonus story for "Into The Bargain". I read that book awhile back so it was nice to return to that setting. Again, another sensitive and thoughtful MMC.
