That escalated quickly

That escalated quickly and was filled with turmoil and angst. A smart and twisty end to the series.

Ruined a Good thing!

This series has been one of my favorite series so far. The story began in a unique way, and it setup a plot I was looking forward to Pip uncovering. It was going to be epic, but then part 3. No spoilers here, but the character arch taken almost ruins the series. I think I waited fifteen chapters hoping it was a dream that the character would wake up from. Unfortunately, that never happened.

Disappointed

I was excited when I begin this because of how much I enjoyed the previous 2. I have to say that the drama that was sought after and craved made for a less believable and far more annoying story line. I considered stopping more than once but I wanted to believe there was something to help recover from my disappointment. The natural flow from the first two books was sorely lacking in this in my opinion.

Love this series

Read this series it is so good! Pip and her friends and family are so great to listen to. Wish it didn't end.

Hey, Serge

OMFG that was..... it's been years since a book made me feel like that. I screamed and cried.... still crying when I heard that text. God.... I might get a tattoo of it. That was.... it was.... it.... just was.... I can't words right now. I need to go punch a wall or something. ****!!!!!

Great series

If you like True crime this series is great! I enjoyed listening since it has so many different characters

Crying as I write this

I don’t even know where to start. I binged the first book and enjoyed Pip and her story. The second one was pretty good too and i just fell in love with the characters. But this one ?! I could not put it down. I had dreams about it. Nightmares !! It was so good and so thrilling and one of the best audiobooks and performances I’ve listened to!! At one point I thought my heart palpitations were gonna be the end of me. I loved every second of it please just listen!

Not what I wanted to happen but good

I read the reviews prior to buying this book, and I couldn’t resist the final book in this series. I understand how the author got to where this book went but I expected more. Although not every book I read/listen to can go the way I want! It doesn’t make me love this series any less!

As Good as Dead

I started to loose interest half way through. The main character became too whiny and many of the details/descriptiveness too repetitive. I was invested in the story and had to finish.

A mixed bag

I really enjoyed the first two books, and when starting this one appreciated Pip's mental state hadn't just miraculously rebounded after the end of the second one. Bailey Carr does a great job narrating these, for sure, and for the first half of this one I was pretty into it, though irritated at Pip because the answer to the case was VERY obvious but she was wrong af until she found out. Then the second half of the book... I like that it went a different direction, but it all seemed just so unnecessary. It also felt somewhat out of character, even if the book explains why her reaction was the way it was. I don't know, the back half of this one didn't work for me, plot-wise. BUT the writing itself in that back half was excellent. I felt incredibly tense the whole time while listening.
