This series has reached its end and I’m sad to say goodbye.

To the end, Simon remained my favorite. His motives always revolved around himself…until they didn’t. His development was so satisfying to read. He’s self-aware of his insanity and plays off it, even if that means killing others just for fun. There is just something about him that you can’t help but be charmed by. HOWEVER, I do not stand by his ricotta cheese SLANDER. Ricotta cheese is delicious!

Cora may have annoyed me at times with her indecisiveness, but I had to remind myself that what she was experiencing was a lot for a single person. In the end, I understood and liked her character. She was feisty. Her relationship with Simon was hilarious. The two of them just fit together. Their banter was my favorite moments in the entire series.

I won’t tell you who this quote is from because I don’t want to spoil anything, but their death was heartbreaking. I came so close to crying from this moment. I’ll miss them.

Rudy is underrated! I want an entire spin-off series dedicated to this man! Maybe I just love the crazy characters? I don’t know. But he deserves more love!
