WHAT

it did not just end like that i-

also, jameson and grayson are mine😼 i cant choose one


ah, its been so long since I last read a mystery and this just made me remember how much I miss it. Once again, I have fallen in love. The characters, the plot, everything about this was just amazing.

Excuse me while I suffer waiting until September for book 2.�

════▣◎▣═══�

“If there's one thing the Hawthorne family isn't, it's fine. They were a twisted, broken mess before you got here, and they'll be a twisted, broken mess once you're gone.�

I still can't get over that Avery just randomly got called to inherit a billionaire's fortune?? How awesome is that? You don't even know said billionaire and have never come across anyone close to them and yet you get all the money that was originally all supposed to go to his grandsons???

I couldn't stop laughing when that happened. They were sooo pissed it was hilarious. Although I can't blame them, I would've wanted to kill her... which is probably why she got all those death threats-

ouch.


I love Avery. She's literally so smart and the way she wouldn't let her personal feelings get in the way in trying to find solve the case was really admirable. Also, being able to show no emotion on her face?? I wish I could do that -- it sounds so cool and it'd be really useful for me during those games of chess i lose.


And Jameson ahhh Jamie my bby🥺 demon mashie mentioned how he gives off Matthew Fairchild vibes and seriously why is that so true??? TLH has gotten to us smh.

But anyways, I'm in love with his chaoticness (thats not a word) ughh I'm seeing a trend in the type of guys I keep falling for. i mean, he's like matthew so how could i not love him?? Getting drunk to run away from his problems and acting like a maniac even sober... I love it. And the way he talked omg-
"If I do what I should no more often than I say what I shouldn't�" his lips twisted�"then what does that make me?"

I had no idea what he was saying here?? Although he was drunk, so maybe that's why, but ohmygod I literally spent 10 minutes trying to understand that sentence. god i love jamie.🥺 oh what a coincidence that he has the same nickname as james herondale...okay ill stop now


Okay, and then there's the broody older brother, Grayson, who I absolutely despised at first, but he's actually so sweet??? I can't blame him for always putting his family first sdfsdfs what is this? Me falling in love with two potential love interests for the love triangle?? oh no, not good, not good. *cries* is it too much to ask for both of them to be happy?


There was also Nash, the oldest brother of the 4, but I don't like him. There's something off about him and I just cant with him. Now Xander, the youngest one, is such a sweet cinnamon roll. The bright and happy one of the group... or so it seems. Who knows? I definitely can't wait to see more of him next book hehe

“Sometimes things that appear very different on the surface are actually exactly the same at their core.�

This has to be the first time that one of the first few guesses I made ended up being right?? I am beyond shocked. This needs to be marked in history. I, Lia Demonstairs, have actually guessed correctly.

ah, this feeling... so satisfying. But anyways, I had it from the beginning but throughout the book I kept changing because everyone was acting so sus. smh I still don't know who to trust!! what is this sorcery??


And that twist at the end --


Dear Authors, you cannot just end a book like that. You're literally killing us. And when we die, we cant read the 2nd book, and when we cant read the book, that hurts you so in the end we both suffer, right? So why not take pity on our poor mortal souls and not end it like that?? Thank you.

just kidding, the masochist in me loves this torture

════▣◎▣═══�

Buddy read with some demons krizzie, mash, lucy, ish, charm, and devika.

i wish a billionare would leave me his fortune🥺
