"And then I met you. And you feel safe."

Finding your person can happen when you least expect it and in the last place you'd think to look. All the hype for this last book in the Museology trilogy I read and saw was calling this a gentle love story and Nellie nailed it. It's not often that I'm genuinely moved to tears (or very near tears, because emotions are hard) while reading a book and Jeremy and Davis were the softest for each other and I was LIVING for it. 

My heart ached with Davis's struggles and fears to be an openly queer man in a role that's often very heteronormative. Jeremy's emotions journey of having to navigate love in the shadow of idolizing parents relationship and not having them with him to celebrate finding that kind of love for himself too.

I can't wait to continue to see more of the Vanberg crew in the next set of stories!!
