Welcome to Litsy!

The book lost a quarter of a star because the writing is clunky in places, but I loved it and will be continuing the series. I especially liked the historical and pop culture references.

Some of the magic from the previous books eluded me in this one.
It was still incredibly tense, distressing, and harrowing.
However, most of the twists I foresaw this time around. I wasn't as taken aback by the events as I was with the previous two books.
Still, I'm anxiously trying to make time to read the next book.

I am a big Magnus fan and I've been waiting for this Malec story for what feels like forever. But I was disappointed with the plot, it just didn't feel believable and it was so predictable.
I did enjoy the characters showing a different side than usual, Magnus being vulnerable and Alec growing into his confidence with their relationship

Jenna Murphy believes Noah has been incorrectly charged with murder. He#r side investigations earn her a suspension and later a demotion. But, she‘s still convinced this case ties in with a string of others, especially after her uncle is killed. Too many town secrets have allowed a killer to hide in plain sight. Gruesome.

Almost done, I swear!

This one I didn't care for as much as the others. The story is one you've heard a million times: a group finds a stash of hidden cash, everyone turns on each other other, group get paranoid about the robber that hid the money, chaos ensues. This one has a very Stine-esque twist though that I really didn't need and a scene I could have lived without

This is a mid pick for me. I really enjoyed the whole vibe this book let on. Ghost stories, party games, unsuspecting victims, trapped on and island. There was a lot of predictability but, I mean, it's Stine...of course there is 🤣 It was fun.

I always enjoy a Riley Sager and this was no exception. I mean, you've read the story a million times and know what to expect so there's really no surprises. Even the paranormal element. Could have done without it but meh.
