Sweet holy hell Ker Dukey and K Webster have done it again. This book was intense. It was dark. It was suspensful. It was taboo. And it was perfect for the ending of the Pretty Little Dolls series.
I need to set up a therapy appointment as to why I liked it so much (yet again!
Looking forward to the V games.

⭐️ 4 "Dark Ride Into Madness" Stars ⭐️
Pretty Broken Dolls is another wild ride of astonishing and brutal events. I enjoyed it, but I felt a different vibe than from the previous books in the series. It felt a little disconnected from the initial direction of when the Pretty Little Dolls Series first started.
Obviously with this duo of author, you know you’ll get entertained and shocked and that’s exactly what they delivered once again. There’s no level of too wrong or too bad for what their characters can do. There’s no limits and that’s what I liked about this book. It keeps you on the edge, trying to predict where the story will go and always being wrong in your assumptions.
This time, the story revolves mostly around Viktor, Benny, Elizabeth and their extreme craziness. I felt like the book was written to root for them (the bad guys) and not for Dillon, Marcus and Jade (the good ones). Pretty Broken Dolls is a game of cat and mouse where Dillon’s team is always two steps behind. There’s blood, kinky sex, murders and all the madness that makes this series dark and gory.
As much as I find this book broke the unity of the series, I still really enjoyed it and can’t recommend the Pretty Little Dolls Series enough.

Jesus fucking christ, what did I just read??
You thought Benny from the first two books was bad?? Benny&Tanner is 100% more dangerou and delulu.
Do these two authors ever write sisters with good family relationships? 😂
I'm sooo happy we would see more of Tanner&co in a spin-off!

it's just... not it... I constantly felt like the plot was lost, jade was a minor character and then Dillon was the dumbest character in the book and then Benny was the most loving all of a sudden and then Elizabeth had a sudden change of personality and they turned her into Macy just to fit the narrative... and I just think after all jade needed closure, an ending not this... it was as if everything that happened in the other books didn't count, you know? she just needed a better ending, she deserved better and not to become a minor character here who only got pregnant and also why just why did poor dillon end up being such a shitty detective here? It's like it was another character and I think a lot of my opinion are summarized in that I honestly didn't like that the focus shifted from Jade/Benny to benny/Viktor/Elizabeth. maybe it should have ended in book 3 cause this was not what I expected but hey at least it's over!

This was the grand finale and it was awesome!
I thought this story would not end well for some of the characters and was happy that everyone the story ended the way it did. Very well done!
I am almost sad that it is over.

Where the other books had some kind of reason and plot behind them this fell for me big time....
I did like that we got a look at Cassian/ Viktor... But i still felt a lot of the book was a prelude for the V games Taking away from a story i had invested in for three books....
I think Dillon and co Marcus and Elise just got a rushed fobbed off ending.
The characters in this seem to be just running around like lunatics.... sometimes for a reason but for the majority just for the sake of it, the story lacks and suspense and mystery like its predecessors, the kidnapping from the last book has no chase or no suspense it all felt a little blah and i couldn't really understand the reason for it all....
Yea this book was a let down for me, i probably wont read the V games if its more like this.....

Wow this series took me down a road I wasnt expecting. So much changed from Book 1 to Book 4. Interested in the V Games Spinoff.
