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

One of the easiest 5⭐️ i’ve ever given. I loved this series of books so much when I read them on my kindle that I treated myself to the physical that contains all five. and when I tell you I ate it up, I ATE IT UP.
I didn’t forget how good this book was because whenever I get the chance to recommend a book or talk about this book, I jump at the chance! But re-reading it had me going back on the ABSOLUTE emotional rollercoaster that this books sends you on. I was laughing, smiling, falling in love with the characters and their deep love for each other, I was crying, scared, and grimacing at the gruesome parts. But my god, I would not have changed a single thing. Every single sentence of this book had me gripped and not waiting to stop reading.

THIS F*CKING BOOK IS EVERYTHING, INFINITY STARS!!!! Lana myers is my fave fmc EVER, she’s such a badass. The story, writing, characters, plot, it’s all sooo good.

i don't even care if the events that occurred in this book are unrealistic. it was so addicting to read and so satisfying in so many ways. every day i was excited to read it. you need to have a stomach of steel to read this though.
