Ok, wow. For a start I am absolutely loving this series, and the temptation is strong to just dive straight into the next one (but i know the next one is the last... For now?)
The same entertaining characters from the previous books are back with a bunch of new ones (both human and other), more wackiness and more apocalyptic horror. I thought the ending was a little... loose...with regards to resolution of the monster plot, but I think I can forgive that for the resolution of the emotional plot. The handling of mental health issues is spot-on and I am feeling things I never expected to with these books.
Wait, what's that, the funny horror book made me feel emotions? Sorry, maybe I can't forgive that after all 😄
