I cannot believe I've finished this series already! I feel both giddy because it was so goooood. And like crying because it's now oooooover :(. I haven't binge read anything in ages, and I'd forgotten how much I love the fog of reading through an entire series in one go. I'll admit that I wasn't so sure about Lon when we're first introduced to him in book one, but he grew on me in that book and through all the rest and now he and Cady are one of my favorite book couples ever! I can't believe this is an entire series where a couple works together without crazy misunderstandings or separations. From when they get together in the first book until the end of the fourth one. I LOVED every minute of it. The mysteries and danger kept me glued to the pages as well, as did the secondary characters. Especially Jupe, Lon's son. I adore him so so much. I'm going to miss being inside of Cady's head and tagging along with all her crazy adventures. But I do hope she's getting a lot more peace now than she did during this series!
HIGHLY highly recommended.
Love triangle factor: none
Cliffhanger scale: series end!

Fantastic book, loved how they dealt with all the problems, and I loved being in Jupe's head! Great read!

Such a great book, and a great ending to the series! I wish it wasn't over, but it was so great, and I just loved it!

While I'm glad I started this series when the fourth and final book was nearly released so I could read them mostly back to back, I'm sad to see this series go. This final installment is the showdown everyone has been waiting for and it doesn't disappoint. We even get a few chapters from Jupe's POV, which are great fun and I thought Ms. Bennett did a fantastic job getting into a 14 year olds head. This is such a cool, unique, and interesting world. I hope the author chooses to revisit it at some point, maybe with a story about Jupe or Tabby?!?!
Banishing the Dark is the last book in the Arcadia Bell series. And it begins about a month after the third one ended. Cady is going to try to take down her mother once and for all, and she also has to figure out a way to save her family, and more. But it is not as easy as you would think. Especially with Cady needing to keep secrets from her mother, and also trying to learn everything her mother did to begin with that created her. They must race against the clock if they want to help save Cady, and get rid of all the crappy stuff going on.
This book was really really good. I was so sad to see the series end, and this was the perfect way for it to go. I really loved getting to see more interaction between Cady and Lon as well. They are a great couple. And then getting to see Jupe's point of view was just icing on the cake! Then the ending with the epilogue was just awesome. This was a perfect way to finish off this series, and I very much enjoyed it.

A fitting ending to the series, with neatly tied loose ends and an epilogue that proves our heroes got their happy ending after all the obstacles they had to overcome.
I really enjoyed Arcadia's world and its characters with their knacks and quirks and distinct personalities.
The author is writing a non-UF series, Roaring Twenties that I might check out, hoping that I'll enjoy it as much as I did this one.

I loved this series and while I was sad this was the last book, I am glad it didn't continue into a 20 book series.
Overall what won me over in this series is at the end of the day, you have the main characters with very real problems and while their world has a bit of supernatural flair, it is, to me at least, a more realistic viewpoint of what if super naturals were part of our world.

I'm sad to see the end of this series with its awesome ensemble of characters.
A great finale for the Arcadia Bell series! I loved the return of Cady, Lon and Jupe - Bennett did a great job tying everything up. Can't wait to read more of her work!
I can't believe the series is over! I had no idea this would be the last book - but if it had to end, I thought she did it well.
