Vague spoiler ahead
If you liked the previous book you’ll like this one. They flesh out Alex more in this book and give him a chance to shake his earlier title of scumbag, but can he change? you’ll have to find out for yourself.
I’m not a big fan of action in these books, as silly as that is, so if you like action you’ll be happy but if you prefer character growth and interpersonal relationships more you’ll be fast forwarding a bit
