Okay. It's the first time a book left me this speechless. I had a headache (it's not a lie.. my head is still throbbing right now) after I read GGBB.
It's not the best book I read. Just like AGGGTM, some of the chapters in GGBB are unrealistic (again, it's fiction so of course some scenes can be realistic). GGBB has its flaws. But I don't freaking know why I don't know what to say and feel.
I've read a lot of mystery/thriller books. I'm addicted to true crime podcasts. But for some reason, I can't explain what I feel up until now.
This book keeps getting darker and darker - I'm not complaining, though... but it makes me wonder if I want to jump right in and finish the last book in the series (As Good As Dead). I read some reviews saying AGAD is the darkest book in the series. Not sure if I can subject myself to this feeling again (whatever that is).
