rorlav22's review against another edition
1) the reveal and in-depth explanation of how Barney (the dog) was murdered - this, to me, is so unnecessary and animal murder is something that completely turns me off from books. I didn’t like this in the first book, and the expansion and increased violence of it in this book is even worse.
2) Pip has COMPLETELY changed from who she was. Granted, she has gone through some life-altering things, but becoming a jaded individual who puts herself above others (not caring that there’s an innocent man in prison for DT’s murders to save herself from going to jail when she did commit manslaughter as an act of almost-self-defense) is so far from the character she was that it’s hard to empathize with her or want to continue to see her path in this story.
Overall, I think there was unnecessary violence that was disturbing and didn’t add to the plot, as well as character development that didn’t seem true to who the character was at their core.

I love how the plot was executed, and how events from the first two books were all tied full circle in this one, I always love when that happens. You kind of figure out the mystery early on in the beginning, but then the twists after come fast enough to leave it exciting. My only complaint is the very very end.
