My thoughts:

Lone Wolf by Gregg Hurwitz develops Evan Smoak more than I could have hoped for or imagined. I’ve loved watching Evan get in touch with his humanity book after book, and Lone Wolf showed sides of him I never dared to hope to see. The story had a poignant edge that brought an intriguing layer and a tear to my eye.

There’s also plenty of action and a breakneck pace that keeps the pages flipping. The pacing for this whole series has been phenomenal, and it’s one of the many things I love about it. The action started only a few chapters in and intensified as Evan repeatedly outwitted a female version of himself.

I also loved Joey’s role in the story with all her frustrating typical teen issues that were so far out of Evan’s comfort zone that he didn’t even know how to begin addressing them and helping her. It provides comic relief to the story, as did her constant wit. 

I love how this series develops and can’t wait for what will come!
