I know I say this about too many books, but I knew I would love this book. I knew I would be upset that it's a stand-alone book. And I knew ahead of time that it would make me feel all the feels.

And yet, somehow, I was still unprepared.

I am so glad to finally have those book in hand and available to me. I had pre-ordered it (sort of from two places because I wanted to attend one of the virtual book tour events) and was thrilled that it was ready for pickup on launch day - even if launch day was three weeks late. Unfortunately, life being life, I wasn't able to go pick it up until today. I had the ebook and the audiobook already, but I wanted my physical copy in hand while reading this. And it was worth every bit of the wait.
