i like adrian and felicity just fine, but monty still owns my heart as he has since i read Gentleman’s Guide. he is my favorite historical fiction character ever, i adore percy too (very much! it’s just monty whose character really deeply sticks with me), and

the wedding scene at the end nearly had me in tears. such a stunning ending to this series.

. i could easily make an entire video essay on monty’s near-perfect character arc/development.
