The plot twist in the series was insane. It wasn’t as hockey heavy as it’s made out to be, but the fluidity between books and the mystery is fantastic.

It’s finally over!

This was not a terrible end to the series, but it was very cliche and longer than it needed to be.

Laiken and Hayes definitely proved again that their relationship is extremely physical. I feel like they spent more time together having sex than they did trying to fix any one of their problems.

I think Nolan was also written off very quickly. I wish the revelation of her being a somewhat accomplice would have been focused on a bit more. Instead, time was focused on other things that I think could have been left out.

Everything also seemed to be easy for the group. They got away with “murder” once. Then they get away with disposing another body. They get away with constantly having the bar vandalized. Then they easily find a place that can turn a DNA test around in less than 24 hours. Less than 12 hours, really. I know it’s a book, but at least make it a little believable.

I also wish Riley would have acted alone. Bringing Monty back just seemed way over the top. Like his return was just thrown in for a wow factor when a secret sibling was pretty shocking anyway.

I GET THE PLL VIBES NOW. Definitely more interesting than the first two books but the main characters all have a veryyyy messed up way of handling their problems, never communicating, and dare I say being menaces to society. An extra star because PLOT TWIST and I loveeeee the mystery crime vibes, but still not likable characters, still did not enjoy most of the book, and still not my favorite. I fear I must go read the PLL series now.
