Oh, where do I even begin with this book? All the Lies took me by surprise, and now I just can't wait to dive into the next installment. It's definitely my favorite so far, striking the perfect balance between dark romance and gripping gore, even for someone like me who doesn't always lean towards such themes. But what truly stole my heart was the vulnerability of the heroine. S. T. Abby crafted her character with such care and depth that I found myself cheering her on every step of the way. Her journey, filled with determination, made me even more invested in her quest to achieve her goals. The small town setting added a whole new level of intrigue, almost like being drawn into a cult. Power struggles and secrets kept me hooked, making me flip through the pages quickly.

If I were to nitpick, I would've loved to see a bit more prolonged torment for one of the villains. Seeing them beg for mercy would've been the icing on the cake. Overall, I am excited to finish Book 5!
