Okay, so.
I really enjoy the relationship at the centre of this series and that;s what got me through it.
These books are weirdly...tensionless? The stakes are high on paper but the danger rarely feels urgent .
IDK, I guess I just feel a bit let down because I wanted the book to be more climactic.

Spoilers, maybe:
The previous book in the series felt like a bit of a filler episode, so I was looking forward to this instalment because I thought we might get back to some stakes.
Almost a quarter of the way in, the most driving incident for the plot happened off-page.
