Once & Future by Cory McCarthy, A.R. Capetta
3.0

This book was a lot of fun. While I didn’t care too much for the meta knowledge and jokes, including the actual King Arthur tale. There is great representation for PoC and genders, including an ace character (whom I really enjoyed!). But I’m generally not into stories that don’t take things seriously, which is probably the majority of the book. Luckily though, there are emotional beats and subversions of the original story that land very well. By the end I quite enjoyed it and will continue to the next book.
