These are still so goddamn fun and hilarious!

I'm loving how the little family keeps growing each book, growing in character, power, connections and closeness.

I'm loving Lillian taking more of a second-in-command role in Fred's company and even a leadership role in the clan itself, she hosts a wealth of knowledge of the in's and out's of the vampire world and I love how she's often got Fred's back when he has holes in those experiences.

A lovely bit of bonding between Fred and Neil happened thanks to them being pulled into a magical maze escape room case, and we now understand that Neil being annoyed by Fred was actually because he hated himself for how he was in the past and Fred reminds him of the horrible person he used to be, so he doesn't hate Fred, Fred is just a mirror reflecting his worst moments, but now that he knows this, he's working on it 🥳

We've a new member of Fletcher Accounting Services! Al, the Pixie! I wish she was more present in this book, that was a shame, but I hope to see more of her from now on.

Just seeing the gang come together each time when someone is threatened is just so heartwarming and satisfying!

Onto book 7! 🥰
