Lyndsey Gollogly (2893 KP) rated Dark Truths (Kiss Her Goodbye #2) in Books

Apr 3, 2020

I used to be Everly Marrs, then D, W, J, K, and T kidnapped me to force my father’s hand. As hard as I tried not to lose myself to their games, I couldn’t have imagined how much worse things could get.

Six months trapped in hell. Six months forgetting who I used to be. Six months just trying to survive.

I got out—eventually—and there they were, all five of them. One moment I was in hell, and then suddenly, I returned to purgatory. They keep telling me what will happen to those who took what belonged to them. They keep telling me what will be done to their enemies.

I’m not sure I can believe them. I’m not sure a word they say is true.

The Letters, they’re still at war, and I’m still in the middle of it. I was an ant, and everyone around me stomped on me.

But, I used to be Everly Marrs, and— dammit— I will be again.

So things just got a little darker for Evelyn. There were some points I just wanted to slap her but I think her first kill kinda did that for her! I'm glad she did what she did at the end too I think some of the men are get a bit to emotional. I do love Rebecca and her writing style.

I was bored, to put it simply. As the pages turned, I found myself asking over and over why I continued to read when I wasn't exactly loving the book. But on I read, determined to see this one through, slightly spurred on by the little hints and foreshadowing sprinkled throughout the story. Then it happened. Every prediction affirmed, revealing a hideous and heartwrenching truth. Honestly, I was quite surprised at how much I hurt, considering how ***bored*** I was during most of the book; but I did hurt, and I mourned Jacob right alongside Trixie. When I saw I was already 90% finished, I had a feeling I would be disappointed again - who loves a story without a happy ending, one such as this. However, like with After You and Me Before You, as tragic as this ending is, I think it's easier to imagine Trixie slowly healing and eventually moving on with life (though never forgetting Jacob and the impact he had) than to experience it happening. Originally, I would have given God-Shaped Hole a 2 or 2.5 star review, but because Tiffanie made my heart break so deeply, I have to give it a 3.5 rating - I was very impressed with how much she made me feel in the final 10% of this book.
