Asså Wills och Emmys relation va den sjukaste bergochdalbanan jag upplevt, sometimes may be good sometimes may be shit liksom. Älskade deras typ arga love confession iaf när hon frågar om han vill gifta sig. Så gulligt när alla lyckades gifta sig också hahah.
Asså Will i denna bocken va ju helt krossad typ?? SJUKASTE plot twisten att han skicka sig själv till black church och att han och hans farfar lurade Crist och han andra. Asså Wills trauma med vatten vid dehär laget är inte att leka med men så bra att han döda Martin och de gjorde de bättre att han gjorde de i vattnet och med sina händer.
Grät också när Martin sköt Alex men de va tur att hon inte dog asså för hon är nog tio tre favoritkaraktär.
Tyckte om Damon och Emmys relation och sättet de bonda på. Även om de va genom att döda och begrava Damons mamma vilket ledde till att Damon såg Emmys blåmärken från Martin så han gav henne nyckeln till rummet i kyrkan, så va de deras sätt.
Skulle säga att första typ 8 timmarna i boken eller va de va under de 5 dagarna i black church inte de mest underhållande för mig. Gillade som sagt viben ändå men de va nått som saknades under den tiden. Därför blir det inte mer än 4,5.

I disagree that you need to read the books before this in the series - I didn’t know it was a series until the end, & had no trouble following the plot and other details.

i think being able to personally relate to a lot of emmy's experience made the book hit a lot harder for me than the others in this series, because PD managed to portray how it feels to walk on eggshells like that surprisingly accurately. the prose isn't amazing and there were a few spelling/grammar issues (nowhere near as bad as a lot of other DR tho imo) but i found the flashbacks so moving. in most of the other books i found the flashback chapters a bit of a chore to read but i was tearing through these!
i liked damon even more in this book. it might be because his "friendship" with emory felt realistic and pretty natural (especially compared to rika in kill switch lol) so it less like a character assassination than in his book. speaking of rika, i liked her a lot more in nightfall - she also felt more authentic than she did in kill switch! for some reason a lot of alex's scenes and interactions felt somewhat forced or out of character and i can't put a finger on why exactly. there seemed to be a big emphasis on her relationship with will and their past hookups to the point it felt like overkill but
i really liked the characterisation in this book and ended up liking the new characters way more than i expected. i was scared i'd end this book not caring about emmy and will's relationship since he's been obsessed with her since like the first book but it was developed well + i could understand why they fell in love. however, the last bit of the book (and the epilogue) fell a little flat for me and i'm not sure why, other than the pacing. i think it might be because there was so many characters together it was just a lot to keep track of, or something like that? anyways in regards to the

WHAT DO YOU MEAN IT'S OVER????
I pretty much knew from the beginning that Will was my favorite (Kai being second). This man is a die-hard simp and I love that for him. Mans is feisty too, and despite being warm and the one who makes people laugh, he can be cold as ice. I highlighted and annotated so much in the kindle app, but I think this may be my favorite in the series, hideaway being a close second.
I really like the concept of Blackchurch. Where powerful people send their kids that can't act right. But man from the beginning of this book I was mad as hell that Martin wasn't there because that man is a whole ass DEMON. He got what he deserved every time it came to him, and Kai and Will are kings for beating the snot out of the MF. If it were me, they wouldn't have gone to prison for it but that's because FUCK COPS.
I love that Emory and Will found each other again and that time didn't change anything. They were meant to be. I love the masks returning, as well, and the friendship between Emory and Damon is UNMATCHED. Damon's still an asshole but the shared understanding they have is everything <3.
I love that in every book in the series, the horsemen have growth. They're menaces to everyone else, but they love each other so much.
I feel like I don't know what to do now that the series is over.
