When Sorrows Come

 When Sorrows Come (also "And With Reveling") by Seanan McGuire, 384 pages.

Toby's getting married! Finally! Moreover, Toby is getting married sooner than even she expected, after her friends decided to take her at her word when she said that they should handle the details of the ceremony and just tell her when to show up. It even practically goes to plan, with just one small coup she has to prevent before she can get married (which is honestly probably still less bloodshed than most people were expecting).

This book was really nice because we got to spend a whole lot of time seeing how far Toby has come and how much she's healed. This is book fifteen in the series, and it was genuinely really nice to be able to take some time to appreciate how far she (and everyone else) has come. The plot was good, but ultimately secondary to the characters. I'm finally almost caught up! Hopefully I'll have time to read book sixteen before the new one comes out in the fall.
