Live and Let Lionel by Susanne Valenti, Caroline Peckham
3.0
dark emotional funny informative lighthearted reflective sad medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

Wasn't the biggest fan of the Lionel theme. It added unnecessary fluff to fill out the book but took away from the overall enjoyment. 

Additionally, reading the "Night" novella featured here solidified my opinion that the Ruthless Boys' relationships with the twins feel very off during ZA 7 and 8.

They feel like strangers, and the relationships were sterilized to prevent people from feeling like they are missing out on some deeper connection that anyone who read RB would instantly make.
