Book 1 of this series is one of my favourite books ever, and it ends without the mystery being revealed, so I was very curious to see how it all turns out in book 2! It's safe to say that book 2 delivered in that regard and everything was more complex than I had imagined and fit well together to form a wonderful, somewhat open ending. Again, I enjoyed the letter-form of the book a lot and loved reading all the notes and thoughts the characters put down so meticulously. The recapitulation of full conversations in letters always seems a little improbably to me, but at least this way we got more felt direct interaction in this second installment. The book did have a few lengths tbh, but the writing was again wonderfully whimsical and sweet. I'm also a big fan of the queer-normative world-building and the many well-done representations of diverse gender-expressions, sexualities and mental illnesses or neurodivergences. I can wholeheartedly recommend this series to everyone who loves whimsical worlds, honest conversations, slow reading and writing in the style of old-timey letters!
