Thrilling and twisted sequel in the Righteous series!
“I’ll be fine.” Those three last words had become a mantra, if mantras were lies people told themselves to feel better.
Everyone has those “I’ll be fine” moments but it is so true in this installment. This starts off in Dale’s point of view when she was supposed to go to rehab but instead ends up uncovering information about the “man in the mirror”. Dale is on a mission. This man she is falling in love with and now she must save him. Dale finds out that Loey is keeping him trapped in there and has to confront her best friend about same. As Dale’s and Loey’s friendship is truly tested so is the relationship between the two brothers that they are falling in love with, Barty and Jeronimo. The story continues as they try and find out who the Skinned Man is and exactly what happened to Frankie.
This story is full of twists and turns that will keep you turning the pages because we all must know exactly what happened. Just when I thought I might have it figured out a new twist is thrown in the mix. Righteous really is full of dark secrets and crazy pasts. As the truth continues to unfold more questions need answered. The past and present are coming together and then the crazy really begins. The world building is phenomenal and will keep you immersed in the thrills.
“The price of having a best friend who was closer than a sister was the type of pain she could inflict. They knew all the secrets. Knew where all the bodies were buried. They knew all your weakest spots because they’d held you at your weakest. That information, turned around and pointed back at your heart — well, it could cut like a razor blade.”
Above is the perfect quote for Dale and Loey. This is an amazing story of friendship and betrayal. I cannot wait to find out what happens next. Keep the crazy coming in Righteous!!!
This dark twisted story continues and leaves me wondering about the voices in this author’s head that had her creating such a crazy, emotional, mesmerizing read. These characters have led a twisted deranged life behind lies and fear, to hold a place in the community. Using a death to cover a deed, framing a man for said death because of those deeds, has doomed them all. Now that the past and the present converge and hell has come to town. It’s no longer a secret and as all of the players gather and fight among themselves the truth is coming out but is it soon enough. It isn’t over and yes she killed us with a cliffhanger, but that’s okay since I need time to recover. Don’t blink because you might miss something. Hopefully it wont follow you into your dreams or have people thinking your crazy. Watch those mirrors though because you never know what might be lurking on the other side.
“I could love you, Loey Grace Keene.” Those words kill me each time. I’m a romantic at heart, and I simply adore this book, the entire series. It’s action packed throughout, but not without it’s heart-stopping moments.
I’ll read this series again and again. It’s unique and beautiful in its own supernatural way. And “I’m fine” takes on a whole new meaning. Who, or what woman hasn’t said those words while hiding behind a mask of their own?
Give this series a shot by starting with book one. You won’t be disappointed. 5-plus stars! <3
