Ruthless Ends

Ruthless Ends by Katie Wismer
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Did we wrap things up? I guess we did, but there is also the promise of a spinoff series in the future, thus explaining why we shoehorned a new character in here at the last minute. I think we spent more time with Anya than Beth, who was apparently Valerie's BFF growing up?

Ugh - shadow realm Valerie is the worst. The world is falling apart, her evil dad is really evil, somehow we are not supposed to hate her mom anymore, and I guess there is some sort of love triangle happening? I'm over it all but here for the big showdown to happen. After all this craziness, at least we get some good resolution for a lot of the characters. And I know I'm not supposed to be excited but some actually die - which is a change from the previous books. In this final installment we get lots of sacrifice and revenge, and it doesn’t shy away from the darkness. The ending is satisfying, though I wouldn’t have minded a few more answers to lingering questions.
