"People have a very specific amount of autism they will congenially fit into their schedules, and Avery is too much."
This line, and the paragraph that follows, is one that I wish some people would burn into their brains and consider how that might make someone feel, how the world would be a better place if this wasn't so true. :P

Love that there's a frog named Bucky after Bucky Barnes- the 40s comic lore is very cool XD

Yelena and hot sauce mention, 10/10, loving this 😂

I can't wait until I finish this book to tell you all how much I'm loving it

Can I have some stern words with Maudie’s mother

the urge to re-read all my favorite chapter books is so strong right now... Baby-Sitter's Club, anyone? 😅😂

I'm seeing a lot of lower reviews for this book, and so far I can see why 😅 BUT I also know the author wrote this book while going through cancer treatment, and I imagine that that's far from easy- heck, I can't write coherently with a migraine. So I'm going to give it a fair shot and some grace because of that. And honestly... sometimes you just need a cheesy fall barista novel 😂

I'm not gonna lie, I barely remember book one 🫣 But I'm hoping my memory will be jogged because I don't have time for a reread 😂 (disclaimer: I LOVED book one, I just have the memory of a fish)

Jude is Xander Hawthorne in the flesh and idk how to feel 😂

*screaming* I knew this book would be high stakes for me given that it's Cinderella meets Count of Monte Cristo, but my heart is scared 🤣

Re-reading because I just secured Glorious Rivals but my pea brain needs a refresher... XD

Yes, I’m rereading this masterpiece already.

So I already know the plot twist, alas.... BUT I still want to read this one... I want to watch the TV series and see how Joseph Zada acts as we anticipate him as young Haymitch XD

THE WAY THIS BOOK HAS ME GIGGLING

Yes. I am rereading this one two days after I finished it the first time. IT’S LIVING RENT FREE IN MY BRAIN, OKAY??

E-excuse me? 😭

Mentioning kolache? I'm sold. Can this book get any better?

Is Emily autistic? Because she's definitely reading like it and I'm so curious whether that's just me or if she was intentionally written that way 🤔

EXCUSE ME????? EXCUSE ME??? MS. FISCHER, MASTER OF PLOT TWISTS????? *SCREAMS*
