CRYING, SCREAMING AND THROWING UPPPP
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.

Oh man, I absolutely slogged through this book. At this point in the series, I feel like I’ve just read the exact same book four times in a row, so I got bored and totally drug my feet to get through it. There was a bit of excitement at the end, which was rushed, but overall it was  kind of repetitive. I’m not gonna read the last novella because I’m just ready to be done with this series.

This took me a while to finish this book it’s so long. Also I feel this is my least favourite out of the whole series. Every other chapter there is always a twist or turn. I felt there were moments in this book where it wasn’t necessary to thrown in there. Something I have been struggling with is new characters and trying to remember if there relevant or not. This was a drag to get through but when you were intrigued with the plot it did draw you in. I would also like to point out the fact that when you meet the male MC in these books there always angry and cranky I want a new angle.

I think this is a good series just this book was tough.
