I think this was a good closure for this YA trilogy. Maybe predictable but the story has action, suspense, mystery. The ending was hopeful, supportive. I liked it. 3.5⭐️

Mixed feelings with this book. In general, there were interesting parts and action but as I mentioned before, there are stories that can be concluded in one or two books. A third book turns sometimes to be repetitive with unnecessary details, dragging the story, at least for me 3⭐️

Gissy @Chrissyreadit I wish but sometimes there are good months where I have more time to read. Every time I see how many books I have unread plus the one I need (well want😂) in my shelves I say to myself...,read. But the reality is that I don‘t socialize much. I like to stay at home and I don‘t watch too much tv either🤷🏽‍♀️ 12mo
Chrissyreadit i have a life time of unread books! All the same you it looks like you had a great reading adventure ❤️ 12mo
TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 12mo
Gissy @Chrissyreadit Yes, it was a great month but not always is like that. It always depend what I have that month and the type of book I‘m reading. Nonfiction books take me longer time to finish them and I have a couple of big books that definitely it will take me more that a week to finish them. At the end what it really matters it to enjoy what we are reading even if it is only one book 📖 🤗❤️ 12mo
Andrew65 Well done 👏👏👏 12mo

Read for #AuthorAMonth @Soubhiville
I like how this author describes the atmosphere of her stories. In this story, I didn‘t like much the main character Shea but I found Beth so interesting. I liked how the story starts with these suspenseful/mysterious events that occurred in the past and the connection with Beth. I think the ending was a little too “convenient” to resolve the situation. 3.5/3.7⭐️
The gifts in this subscription box were okay.

TheAromaofBooks Yay!!! 12mo
Andrew65 This was a really interesting story, and I enjoyed it a lot. Well done 👏👏👏 12mo

Unpopular opinion for this YA gothic horror story, I liked this book more than the first one. New drama and a different, more mature Louise.The reunion at Coldthistle will introduce new characters and we will know other aspects about Mr. Morningsude. It still have some repetitive parts but it will end in a cliffhanger. 3.5⭐️Love the book cover

Haven‘t read this in 20 years, & the Netflix show it loosely inspired is great, so I gave it a listen. I love the drama & hyperbole of Poe! Slightly cheesy music at transitions, but narration good. #underthewire #Scarathlon #audiobook #TeamWhoYaGonnaCall #31in31 #outstandingOctober #Finalstretchathon
