A review by mavstela
Fire Night by Penelope Douglas
4.0
This is book 4 in the 'Devil's Night' series and by far my favourite. It follows Will and Emory's relationship and concludes the series, with tying up all loose ends. This book starts with a bang and the first chapter dives you right into the story, no waiting, not warm up.
Will and Emory's relationship:
We know little about their relationship prior to this book. Emory has been mentioned in previous book to have a connection to Will, how she broke his heart and she is the 'nerdy', quiet, shy librarian girl in highshool and her description provided in book 3. Will has been obsessed with Emily since high school and she always rejected him. Once she finally gave in, he fucked up and then he went to prison for it. She was abused by her brother, Marvin, who was a cop and also the reason Will went to jail (Will beat Marvin almost to death). This books gives off 'right person wrong time' vibes. They miss each other by an inch and get separated for years. Nine years later they reunite at Blackchurch and Emory helped him love himself again and finally break down all his walls.
Godzilla foreplay talk was unexpected, but made sense; the fact that Will took note Emory liked that movie even in house school and surprised her with a stuffed Godzilla in her locker attaching a invitation to the senior lock-in.
Will is an absolute SIMP and I am here for it.
