As I said at the time of reading this, in a plot twist anyone who has met my exes would have called a mile off, I fell in love with the villainous prick of a MMC and forgave him almost everything.
Some parts of him absolutely make me uncomfy but he won me round and slid back into comfortably murderous and morally grey MMC territory somewhere along the way. I couldn't pinpoint when. Perhaps it was around when the man-eating-murder-circus really began to live up to its name and steal his spotlight. 

Shadow's contribution to this series absolutely wrecked me. In fact, I think I was wrecked many times over during this book. It hits you in the feels in a big way. I wasn't expecting the focus on suicidal ideation and death, however this cropped up quite a few times and really does provoke thought.
