Thank you, Jade Daniels, for being the sort of horror-loving, scared yet tough as nails final girl that I can actually see a piece of myself in 🧡

This is a perfect end to a brilliant trilogy, that’s not to say I’m not heartbroken to have to say goodbye to Jade, Letha and all of Proofrock though. 

Reading this was like taking a big, deep breath before saying goodbye to life long friends, and my god it was heart wrenching.

The story was excellent, and, as always, told so beautifully, that even when I was reading through tears I didn’t want to reach the end.

I can’t wait to re-read through this series sometime in the future and rediscover the piece of my heart that will forever live on Melanie’s bench overlooking Indian Lake.

I'm going to miss Jade forever she truely is one of the best protagonists in the world to me. I know "we can't pick our genre" but I am sad she and Letha didn't get together, but at least we got confirmation that Jade is into women and honestly who knows what the future holds for them... But God. What a final installment. I love how well this book balances so many different types of killers at once and yet ties it all together in the end... Oh Jade... I'll miss you forever.
