4.5/5. This was such a great sequel. I loved seeing Will and Way work on themselves and their relationship while getting to actually enjoy themselves for once, too. There was a lot of back and forth and ups and downs, but I get why it had to happen that way. I liked seeing some jealousy from Way in there as well as Ivy and Jeremy’s meddling. I also loved seeing Way’s softer side once he felt comfortable enough to let it show. Way’s dad added to the excitement of the book and kept me on the edge of my seat multiple times. I loved seeing friendships get mended as well. Oh and Will’s parents are wonderful. Finally getting that last piece of the puzzle and connection from 10 years ago was so fulfilling and wonderful. The ending was great, too. I need more of the Lost Boys. 3/5 spice levels.
