Am I ready for this? NOT EVEN A LITTLE. This trilogy has taken over my life for the past couple of years, and when I say that I have thought about it consistently every single week since the release of There Will Come a Darkness (review linked), I am not even kidding a little. Y’all…

This may shock you, but Halloween is not actually my favorite holiday. I am a huge fan of Christmas, but not because of the presents.
