My Review:
I absolutely loved reading these volumes! I've really fallen in love with this series, I adore this cobbled together family with the secrets that they're keeping, and the shenanigans that they get into! It's over the top, and just a delight to read these stories! 

A lot happens in these volumes, from the boat trip that's a won vacation for Loid and Anya, and a work trip for Yor to protect a lady, where Yor figures out why she does what she does. We also see Loid as a child, and why he's trying so hard to prevent war, and I loved getting that backstory. 

Of course there's also developments in Project Strix, between another Tonitrus Bolt but also another Stella Star, because of her actions when their school bus is hijacked. Her back and forth with Damien, which Anya becomes more invested in after Yor meets Mrs. Donovan, which was pretty interesting. Her interactions, and the times that we got her thoughts, she seems pretty complex. 

And then there was volume 12, with the stolen data, and that cliffhanger ending. I loved being able to go straight to volume 13, it was just so good! Loved how it was resolved, that was pretty intense! And so well done, I just had to keep reading! 

One of my favourite moments is when Damian tries to give Anya the cake that he thinks that she wants because of an early misunderstanding. That she also now wants the cake? Yeah, that was fun, and watching his henchmen, and Becky, chase the pair, was so hilarious! Especially with how it ended, that was so cute! 

These were so great to read and I can't wait for more, that ending of volume 13 is another cliffhanger, I need to know!
