♡ Cold Case
♡ Feminine Rage
♡ How to Get Away with Murder

Wow, what a roller coaster this book was.  The most tense out of the series for sure.  I got through the first part then quickly worried how everything would come together by the end.  Which I’m super happy with how this ended.  Everything came full circle and it was so satisfying to read even if some parts were anxiety inducing.  Pip really slayed with her last case (pun may or may not be intended).

And yes, this book also has stunning formatting with all the extra details in the design of the book.  I absolutely loved this series and highly recommend it.

Spice Level: n/a
POV: First Person

🔨 I've finished this series and it's bittersweet because while I enjoyed every page of every book, it's over. My journey with Pip is complete. This finale was equally thrilling and suspenseful. I did not expect this plot and was at the edge of my seat throughout. 

🔨 Pip continues to amaze me and her character development was so engaging. It was much needed. It was exactly how it should be considering everything that had happened in Little Kilton. I'm excited to see what the TV series will be like and whether it captures all the emotions I have as a reader. Highly recommend this series!

I really enjoyed this trilogy but I found the choices the main character makes a little frustrating and unrealistic at times. Girl I know you have reasons not to trust the police but like if you are for sure being tracked by a serial killer you gotta ask for protection even for your family's safety. I felt the ending was a bit rushed and sad but I do think it was satisfying overall.

I could FEEL pips exhaustion throughout this whole book only not a 5 because of the slightly rushed ending , which I didn’t feel was an issue at all in the first two. GREAT READ!
