Short Synopsis: Perry is dealing with the aftermath of what happened between her and Dex, and the ending of the show. But things get creepier when Perry starts getting haunted no matter where she is.
My Thoughts: I was completely blown away by the latest in this series. Halle's best one yet!
After what happened between Dex and Perry, and the fall out with her show, Perry now resides in seattle as a barista. Dex had been trying to contact Perry with the past couple months, but Perry doesn't respond as she changed her phone number and her e-mail, making it clear that she wants nothing to do with him.
As things are going good with her new job and making new friends, Perry's past somehow manages to come back to her. And most recent, Perry has been having a few episodes. Seeing things that aren't there, and even haunting her house.
And though Perry's trying her best to deal with it, she also gets a blast from her past. A colleague from the show, Max, stops by to let Perry know that the show wants Perry back as their host, without Dex. Perry is reluctant, and doesn't know what to do, as she confides in Max that something might be haunting her, or that something evil is inside her.
Together, Perry and Max try to get rid of the "demon" but things don't go as planned. Perry's sister finally calls Dex as a reinforcement, and together they take Perry to see an exorcist. This is the only option for them all, before Perry becomes even more violently dangerous. Can Perry survive the exorcist and Dex?
Wow! This novel literally kept me up at night. Super creepy, and unputdownable. Halle does it again, keeping readers entranced with the paranormal world. I love reading about Perry's wild adventures and what she's up to next.
There are so many shocking situations I don't know where to start! For those who don't want spoilers, I'll try to keep it minimal. But I was so shocked about what had happened to Perry and what her real cramps were related to. I kept thinking that maybe she was dreaming, or something rational other than that.
I also wasn't a fan of Max, and felt that even though he was giving Perry copious amount of attention, that he was a shady character, and didn't really have any intentions of really helping Perry. I was furious at Perry for not at least giving Dex a chance to explain his side of the story.
I enjoyed reading about the exorcism, even though it was incredibly creepy, I still couldn't keep my eyes off of it. I wasn't to thrilled with Perry's parents and the fact that they couldn't see what a real problem Perry's situation had become. I absolutely hated the ending, but makes me so anxious to read what happens next in the series. In general, an awesome read to a great series, and I can't wait for the next one in the series.
Would I recommend this book: Yes!
Rating: I give this book a 5/5.
