Oh my goodness, I adored HMRC and this was no different. Lighthearted but heartwrenching. Fun but spooky. I think this book added on to the series so well and I can’t wait to read the next one when it comes out.
I am so sad that Niamh never made a return in this book. I was holding on to hope that Juno wouldn’t kill the best character. Seems that’s the case. BUT Ciara’s character arc was a pleasure to read. She just needed so much more love than she got. No excuses for the terrible things she did, but it goes to show that if you tell someone they are “bad” enough times they will start to believe it. Heartbreaking.
