This is the first time ever that the last book in the series was the best one for me? I’m shocked!
Honestly the skull was the best part for me.. his bickering with Lucy was hilarious. Especially when they’re in danger lol. Best parts. You can’t tell me the skull doesn’t care about Lucy. He does, in his own strange way tbh… (that ending tho💔)

Also the group fighting the elderly LOOOOLLL. Lockwood didn’t give a shit ahaha!!!!!!! 
Sad that it ended because I really liked the whole new group together (Lockwood, Lucy, George, Kipps & Holly). I liked the 5 better than the 3.. 
The action of Lucy & Lockwood speaks alouder than words because that all we got from them! It’s fine by me because I didn’t care for their ‘romance’ part if you can call it that lol it was cute at times tho..
