Status Updates From Bridget & Gabe Are Not Okay

I didn’t expect it, but this honestly might turn out to be a 5⭐️ read for me. This is just such a perfect sequel and I’m obsessed

Not quite sure how I managed to read so much of this in one sitting this morning, but I’m loving this so much. It’s just as hooking as book one, with funny moments, but it’s also a deeply moving, respectful, and poignant exploration of grief and trauma that is very hard-hitting and beautifully done. I’m so glad this sequel exists

I really like so far the darker, mental health exploration, and political angle this sequel is taking! The politics in particular is something I wished for more of in book 1!

gosh these poor siblings can’t catch a fucking break 😭

The humor in this book is top tier 😂😂

pros of a character-driven plot: every time I pick this up, I fall in love with the characters all over again!!!

cons: it’s so hard to get myself to pick this up 🫠

if this were bridgerton, a string quartet would be playing growing sideways by noah kahan for gabriel
