The Dark Days Deceit by Alison Goodman

5.0

I was not prepared to part with these characters whenever I turned the last page.

I have loved all three of these books so incredibly much and read them so fast and felt so empty after finishing each one. The amazing details of the world and the characters and the paranormal aspect have yet to cease just stunning me. The attention to the historical details and the real people from historical England who are included in the story make it even more enthralling.

And the character development! Lordy, I love beautifully written characters and beautiful character development. These books contain some of the best CD that I have read and it made reading the book so much more enjoyable. I somehow an attachment to each and every character, even bad ones, because they are all so intertwined to the plot that you can't see how the books could be so alive without them.

The romance between Carlston and Helen were just the icing and sprinkles and whipped cream and cherry on top! Who doesn't love a brooding Earl, amirite? The chemistry these two have and the obstacles they face as a pair and as partners in The Dark Days Club just have you racing to reach the next page until, sadly, there is nothing left.

In the last 50 or so pages, I kept having the set the book down and calm myself from all of the plot twists and the frustration I felt. If you've read this, you know what I'm talking about. I almost couldn't handle it and I was messaging everyone just screaming and crying. And then I finished the book and loosed a long breath that I'd been holding since about 20 pages back.

These books were a wild and beautiful ride and I honestly can't wait to read them again. I hope everyone else can enjoy these amazing books as well.
