Although the story realistically deserves 3 stars, widows hold a special place in my heart, and I can't bring myself to give them less than 4. Fun, flashy, and unfuckwithable, they represent the popular glam of the '80s through the lens of modern opinions. The story is quite simple and predictable, but it brings comfort and warmth. The narrators are excellent, and I even found Krystal more enjoyable than in the first book!
