There are simply not enough TWs in existence for this book. Like this is GRAPHIC in ways I didn’t think it would be. I have no coherent thoughts. What a wild episode of Criminal Minds this was. I finished this in one sitting. Why was this so addicting. And long live my girl Lana Myers.

Super fun, sick and twisted, but also kinda wholesome in a weird way? Never read anything like it and I had a lot of fun. The romance drew me in, but the mystery of the crimen is what kept me going

The plot of this book was absolutely wild. Lana’s dialogue is everything
“But they’re looking for a monster, not a girl who loves red, not a girl who is falling in love”
“maybe I’ll cut her, just a little”
“ I’ll paint the town red”
I heard before reading it that it was a mix between criminal minds and Dexter and that is 100% correct.
I could not put this down, not for a second.

I love Lana Myers so much, and I know I shouldn’t, but I was rooting for her throughout the whole series. 

***Spoiler below ***

I was a little disappointed in the last book of the series. The storyline felt anticlimactic for me, with the stakes so high I thought she’d end up dying or Logan would’ve end up dying. Although the hopeless romantic in me is happy that they got their happily ever after, it still doesn’t sit right with me that she was absolved of all her murders (even though she was justified - idk I feel conflicted
