I was so stressed for the entierty of this Book, I never wanted to put it down. It was so well crafted, I really loved it. So sad, I have reached the end of this trilogy, Pip and Ravi have my whole heart ! I Love Holly Jackson's writing, I can't wait to ready her other Books!!

Zwei Sterne sind schon viel find ich, aber ich geb sie weil der Aufbau der Bücher so gut gemacht ist, alles ist vernetzt und auf einander aufgebaut und wird Stück für Stück preisgegeben. Und ich mag Ravi.

I absolutely loved this entire series. It got a little boring toward the end of the 3rd but I think it ended pretty strong. I havent read book four but I enjoyed the intensity and it really captivated me!

This book will stay with me for the rest of my life. In the best way possible. The twists and turns. These characters are some of the best I've read. The way all three of the books were woven together at the end was immaculate. And the ending killed me, also in the best way possible.

This book is merely dark honestly but it is so captivating. You definately notice a difference between Pip in the previous books and this one. But it is still a mesmerizing book.

Moderate: Animal cruelty and Cursing

This book definately contains A LOT of explicit scenes pertinent to murder and how to cover it up. Also includes emotional abuse. The talk about murder though is categorically the culmination of all things, specifically the dread of death and the covering it up as mentioned earlier. This also rrgards to getting away with it and different ways on how to succeed it, along with framing it on someone else.
