This was the perfect ending to the story started in #murdertrending. These are not the kinds of books I’m normally drawn to, but I really enjoyed them. They were wild and gory and funny, in a way I would not have expected. The plot is so creative.

I loved the first book, and after some procrastinating I can finally say I love the second book in the trilogy. I love how they introduced new characters without erasing the old ones. They didn't drag out the plot for the first second set of characters but instead made their appearance in this book to matter so much more with little bit of page time. The main character for this book was more diverse than the first, she was relatable with reasonable flaws. Loved this. Could not recommend the trilogy enough!
