While Pip isn’t as naive as she was two books ago, there is still just a lot in this novel that represents a more juvenile perspective on life and that makes the story unrealistic. I love the romance and family elements that were included in this latest installment. I’m surprised, in a way, about Pip’s actions and her acceptance of them but lean towards believe that she did what was best.

This had me going up and down with my ratings. First and foremost I always suspected Pip had OCD but now I’m SURE of it. She needed help even before she was traumatized 🫠 Follow her on a journey where she has become completely disenchanted with the judicial system. I can’t say I’m a fan of the ending but it did make sense 🤷🏼‍♀️

WTF, the second half of this book was just..wrong, should have ended differently, but still, the writing is good and there are themes very difficult like PTSD that are treated right

I called the BBEG at about 30%. Around 60% through, I was confused why there was so much time left. There was a major plot hold in the beginning of the story that I kept thinking back to.

Why didn't anybody ask Josh who was watching their home in the first chapter???

 
I'm glad that I finished the series but this was my least favorite of the series for sure. 

The ending was interesting...?
