Holly Jackson managed to finish off this series in the best possible way. I did not expect the book to take the turn it did but I really enjoyed the ride nonetheless. I think this is the best book in the series by far. The plot is fast paced and exciting, the characters are wonderfully charming as always, and the ending left me broken and glued back together again. I simply could not put this book down once I was in and it has ignited a slight obsession with mystery thrillers, a genre which I don't usually read much of. It's safe to say that I will be picking up whatever Jackson writes next because this book as left me desperate for more.

Finally! A series ending I absolutely love and am satisfied with.
