I'll be damned, Kristoff throws us back into the fray like a splash of liquor - recklessly, deliciously, and burning. It's snarkier than ever and peppered with profanity; every f-bomb-riddled insult is guaranteed to entertain. Gabe is becoming more of an unreliable narrator by the minute, and it is revealed that sibling rivalry continues beyond death. I'd recommend this book to all of your closest friends and enemies because it hit me right in the feels, truly a well-aimed silvershot to the chest.
