Phewwww this was a rough one, and not an easy read (though I couldn't stop). It's a testament to the author that I pushed through one of my least favorite plot devices because I had to know what happened, and cared so much about the outcome. Excellent writing, pacing, characterization, and imagery (as horrifying as it was). 4.25 stars.

 This one invoked so many emotions, I did not want to put it down last night but I am glad I did. If I had finished this one right before laying down I would not have been able to sleep with how tense I was at the end. Thinking I may binge the rest of the series next month. This month is too full. Just-
Ahhhhh

The second installment of this series was pretty good, although wasn't as much of a page turner as the first.  There were some tense moments and the ending was satisfying.
