5.0

This was another enjoyable volume of Locke & Key. I liked seeing the repercussions of Kinsey's decision to remove her fear in the last volume and the negative consequences it almost had on her new friends. What I appreciated most about this volume, though, is the fact that Hill and Rodriguez do not shy away from the many negative aspects of Nina's character and how her alcoholism affects her family. She is in no way glamorized as a mother, which I found to be refreshing as a reader.
