Wooo Boy! That was a rollercoaster. This is probably one of the only series' I've read that I can honestly say I couldn't predict what was going to happen. Seriously! Every time I think I have it figured out and I think I know where the story is going... BAM! Everything changes! It's just so refreshingly exciting to have a series be so unpredictable and compelling. I'm only just now realizing how this ending has been gradually building throughout the entire series. It was a casual comment here or maybe a character passes someone in the park but all of these moments were tiny clues leading to the huge finale. WOAH! Considering all the twists and turns this series took, this was such an amazing pay off. 
 I like that by the end of the series our core group of characters started to feel like real people. I'll admit that at times I felt that the characters were more like props and being used to move the story along. And I still agree with that a bit in regard to most of the series. The overall story was the main focus here and not necessarily the characters personal growth. In the last two installments, we really start to get to meet the people because the characters finally let us really see them. They become vulnerable which makes you want them to succeed on a personal level rather than only on a "good triumphs over evil" kind of way. 
 **Side note: Damn Cassie! Is someone is always trying to kill you?! For real guys, like in every book she gets kidnapped or someone is trying to kill her. It's like come on girl! Wise up so everyone doesn't need to keep rescuing you! 
 I think really the only thing I can say about Bad Blood overall was "WOW." While sometimes I felt like the characters were rather dull the story always remained stellar. Jennifer Lynn Barnes sure can write an excellent mystery. I'm usually one for crime thrillers but this one was pretty excellent. I will say that at the end of whole saga, I was left feeling thrilled. I would continue on with the series if Jennifer Lynn Barnes plans to write more stories.
