*cries for a million years*

I honestly can't decide whether I liked this one or the first one more. THEY'RE BOTH SO GOOD. but I feel like this one wrapped everything up so nicely, even though my ship didn't come through (entirely? I think it would have if Timothy had known what he actually wanted/needed) but I'm okay with that. there is literally I want to pick at or whine about--and I'm so thankful that

Val didn't die (and Jim for that matter)

and basically everything about this book made me so happy. the epilogue nearly made me cry while I was reading this at work. *sighs happily*
