Honestly was there any need to make it so fucking stressful and SAD?!
Well, it all worked out so it was all worth it in the end. I really missed the ease of Pip in the earlier books but it was interesting to see how all the events had wore her down and carved out the path she walked down. Jason Bell reveal? Amazing but I was beyond galaxy brained this time around and clocked that pendant. Clocked the headphones as a trophy too so spent pages and pages stressed about the fucking headphones. I also thought the screw was going to come back and haunt her? But I guess not. This one was maybe the most farfetched out of the lot but truly, I don’t care. I loved every stressful second and I’m so glad team pip and ravi are together still.
