Ross (3284 KP) rated American Horror Story - Season 2 in TV
Jan 14, 2019
So much gorier and darker than the first series, Asylum chronicles the events of Bloody-face, the twisted fictional serial killer of the 1960s. This is the story underlying all events in the series, but there is so much more going on. We are treated to a glimpse into the abuse and disgust of people suffering mental health problems, and the supposed treatments being dreamt up to deal with their issues.
The series also has aspects of demonic possession, alien abduction and so much more.
While there were some aspects I felt were left open (the alien abduction for one), and others were not explored quite as much as it could have been, I feel this should be seen as more of an anthology series, where a number of stories of mental illness all intertwine to tell one thrilling story.
An exciting, but at times uncomfortable to watch series with some excellent acting and writing.

Fairy Tale indeed!
I absolutely fell in love with this series! Adventure, magic, a love story featuring a beast of a man, an evil villian who you would love to see fail, and an ending that leaves you gasping and grabbing the next book! My all time favorite series and such an amazing author!

By far the best book in this series! I'll admit, I was hooked from the first few chapters of the first book. This was a totally appropriate finale for this series...or is it really the end? Hmmm...
I sure hope there are more adventures awaiting Ganesh, Blue, Adam, Ronan, & Henry. Amazing characters. Wonderful story.

Great read. Well written, with a great plot and characters. This is the 2nd book in the series. I loved this one as much as the first. It ended way to soon. I can't wait to read more in this series. I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book from Netgalley.

The first three books in the series introduce many of the main characters and give us three great mysteries, too. I still love this series, so I highly recommend you see where it all began.

This was a pretty good end to the series. All of the loose ends were neatly tied up and I wasn't left with many questions. I liked how the plot unfolded. The characters, even in the last few chapters, were still growing into who they would become. Overall, a great end to sn interesting series.
