I loved The Lady's Guide to Celestial Mechanics, the first installment in this series, and I wish I had enjoyed this one more! Ultimately, this is a heist book that leans so heavy on the heist that the romance can barely peek out from under it. I loved the gender-bent Robin Hood vibes, the focus on trade unions and worker's (lack of) rights, and appreciated the musical family, but I wanted more time with our two main characters on page together, and left feeling that I didn't understand when they fell in love and why, and how their happily ever after might work. I also felt like we had only the hints of the found family for Maddy and I would have loved more time with this cast of characters to better understand her!
