Finished this one. Found out book five is written but not out yet. I thought this one was the final book. Was really really wondering how all the loose ends were going to be tied up in the last 25% of the book that was left! :D

Still team Gabriel but feeling kind of less good about myself for being on that team after the end of this book.

Amazing series!

I love this series Soo much! Beyond wanting to find out what happens between the trio and if Gabriel ever wises up enough to be direct with Liv, I really want to continue the story line since there has to be more! Kelley Armstrong is an awesome writer every story that I've read of hers so far has kept me captivated and I look forward to finding more!

The suspense was well done in this one, but I really appreciated the visions and flashbacks. I also liked learning more about huntsman and the hounds and the ending was a little unexpected. I believe Rituals is the last book in the series, so I do wonder how things will resolve.

This is not my favourite series and I can't decide if I will continue on with it. I feel that I should considering that I have gotten this far.

I found that the plot in this book got quite confusing and I wasn't particularly interested. There are a lot of characters in this book and it can be difficult to keep up with. There also seems to be a lot going on and Olivia constantly has visions of the past and future which makes things harder to know what has happened and what hasn't.

A big part of this series is a love triangle so if you do not like those this series will not be for you. In the first couple of books, it did not bother me but I found it very annoying in this one.

I felt that this book didn't really add a lot to the series and whilst I did enjoy the first two books this one didn't seem as good. I believe that there is only one book left in the series and in a way, I am curious to see how it will be wrapped up but I also think that I will not enjoy it as much as the first two books.

Enough to amuse me, but nothing mind-blowing.

Read June 15, 2020 - June 17, 2020. My heart. I am not okay. Excuse me while I cry over these dumb characters for a thousand years.

Okay, first things first, Ricky is precious and must be protected at all costs. He better get a damn happy ending in the next book or my heart will be permanently broken. I'm still very much rooting for a poly ending but I know the chances are in the negatives OTL
It's so... fulfilling to see how Gabriel has grown though? He is SUCH a different person than when he first met Olivia... but still the same person, you know? He's gotten so much more comfortable being a human (ish, considering he's part fae) and the way he readily accepts physical contact now and will even initiate it is !!!! Like, I don't know about anyone else but personally the hugs and little touches are way more exciting to me than anything more explicit. Just, my heart. I am deceased.

ALSO! How Ricky handled that last bit there made me so sad :((( He's too cute :((( At first I was so confused like??? where the hell is this coming from, I thought he was better than this?? And turns out he was just being typical Ricky and sabotaging himself for others' gain. I cry. At first I couldn't really see Ricky and Gabriel together as more than friends but now I'm sort of starting to like them together too

One thing I did really like about this one, and really this series in general, is how there is a fairly large romantic subplot, but it doesn't make up 100% of the story. There's still lots of other stuff going on, even if it admittedly isn't as exciting now. At least, imo. I was very invested in the whole murders thing, and I'm kinda sad that's solved already. Also, where was Todd!!! I want to see more of him in the next book.

Anyway, time to read the last book and ruin my life. School assignments who? I only know Cainsville. Pls just let them all be happy :(( Onward to Rituals! ;v;
