“this was a long and drawn out series! this cautionary tale could’ve been one book.
Lola & Joan were really working my nerves in the first two books, but i couldn’t help but to be on their side towards the end of this book. Calvin was such a perverted and disgusting creep!! reading his POV gave me the same skin crawling feeling that i got when i read YOU by Caroline Kepnes. i hated knowing his sick thoughts, but i know it was necessary for the plot. one minute he had good things to say about Lola and the next he was utterly disgusted. his obsession was driving me crazy!! the man was plotting on killing her for 3 books and it seemed like it took FOREVER for him to make his move. i honestly thought he was gonna back out for a second and just get with her. don’t even get me started on Libby, Bertha, & Reid! good riddance to all of them!
the characters frustrated me, but there’s a lot to take away from reading this series. people should be cautious with who they connect and meet with online. it’s not always the smartest decision to divulge every personal detail of your life to strangers. even offline, you never know what type of person you may be dealing with or what’s hidden behind the mask. a lot of times we put ourselves in compromising situations in pursuit of something innocent, but we have to use discernment. you can save yourself years of misery by standing up for yourself and remaining firm on your boundaries. i’m noticing that this is a common theme within Mary Monroe’s writing and that’s what makes me love it. her characters are extremely flawed and their shenanigans will certainly put you on an emotional rollercoaster, but they serve as a reflection of our own struggles and imperfections.”

“4.5 ⭐️. Calvin and Lola inner thoughts had me rolling over with laughter. Lola treated Elbert like Calvin was treating her. I’m not sure who was more delusional, Calvin or Lola. Lola talked too much. Divulging information that put her in harms way. Of course Calvin being a serial killer and all, he prolonged his thoughts of killing Lola for 3 whole books! He got what he deserved. Although it wasn’t how she wanted to get divorced, Joan was finally set loose.
It’s disappointing that Lola got the short end of the stick when it came to Bertha’s death. But Lola finally got everything she wanted.”
