Spectacle Vol. 4 by Megan Rose Gedris
4.0
Do you ever get to a revelation in a series that causes you to want to start from page one, in book/volume one, all over again? Volume four in the "Spectacle" series is, from cover to cover, that revelation.
There is so, so, SO much that happens that I am trying my best to summarize it without spoiling a single sentence, thought bubble, or cell. From potential cures, to sloppier murders, to a HUGE reveal that (as I mentioned above) made me question each and every Easter egg in the previous three volumes that I completely overlooked.
Would some say that is a waste of time? Sure, but it is not their time to waste now, is it?
If I had to pick a favorite subplot of the series, it is how Anna's social circle surprises her. As someone who is, often, astounded that people genuinely like her and want to be around her I laugh even though I tear up for the more introverted twin. Her realization that she has not one, not two, but THREE friends that will stand by her side makes me blush since I have felt the exact same way.
I am happy and proud of her, even though these friendships are built amongst the terrors of a serial killer...or two...or three....?
While all of the volumes have hooked me for one reason or another, the fourth one (as of this day and time) is hands down my favorite. All the more reason I am looking forward to December 2022, when Volume Five is released!
