I have loved this series, though this final installment is the weakest of the three books for me. It could have used editing and there‘s a section this goes past horror/gore into straight silliness (and I don‘t think he intended that). Also, the audio isn‘t helped by the author reading the last chapter in a combo of monotone and upspeak that was hard to pay attention to. But it was fun to spend a little more time with Jade.

vivastory I have read only book 1 in the trilogy so far, but OMG the scene in the elk tunnel. I read it last yr & I had such a visceral reaction to that scene 6d
TrishB I do really want to read this series, but I‘ve been told there‘s a lot of animal cruelty and it puts me off? 6d
Hooked_on_books @vivastory I don‘t remember that scene specifically, but he certainly goes the distance with the horror and gore. 6d
Hooked_on_books @TrishB The critters at the receiving end of the violence in this series are human for sure. I don‘t remember details of the first two but remember loving them and I‘m not ok with animal cruelty. So I can‘t say some animal death isn‘t present, but if it is, it definitely isn‘t a focus. 6d
TrishB Cool, thank you 👍🏻 6d

My initial reaction to the release of Angel was indifferent; I knew I would read it but wasn‘t sure if I wanted to just yet. Still, despite my disappointment with Reaper, I love Jade and Jones.

And SGJ really delivers! It moves with such speed that it‘s halfway over before you realize you‘re in the thick of it. It‘s an insane, often infuriating but ultimately satisfying conclusion to a story I believe will go down as one of the GOAT in horror.

Hmm. I won‘t pan it - though I‘m tempted. Maybe with time, I‘ll change my mind (like I did with Book 2) but this as an ending to an epic world building that started with Chainsaw (the absolute best horror book I‘ve read in a long while), the homage to slasher films turned too navel-gazey and ultimately got far too convoluted and confusing. I‘m sad about it to be honest. But Jade will always be a final girl to me.

5/5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Wow. This book. What. A. Ride. I don‘t read a lot of horror, but this book/trilogy pulled me in from page one. This is book 3 of The Indian Lake trilogy. These aren‘t stand alone books.
Jade has returns to her hometown of Proofrock, Idaho after her release from prison. When the horrors of the lake arise once more, Jade must find it within herself, again, to fight for the hometown that has betrayed her over & over. #horror #IndianLake

I eat sweets for breakfast and horror movies for lunch. 🤷🏻‍♀️

As a horror movie & book nerd, Jade Daniels has become one of my fave heroines to root for. It‘s for that reason that I had to postpone all my holds to read the ending to her trilogy as soon as I humanly could. 😭

I‘m a third in and not a lot has happened yet, which feels slow for this author, but I trust him to not let me down.

The Savage History of Proofrock, Idaho opens looking through the eyeholes of a mask, with some heavy, menacing breathing amping up the menace.

Yay for book mail! Also-book whiplash. Amanda Flower‘s book is a historical/cozy mystery mashup and SGJ‘s book is a horror novel.

I know you all are pumped that there's a third book in this series coming your way. 😂 I love these. No idea why. This author is just different.
