10 books into the Disney's Twisted Tales series and the 6th Liz Braswell book, we have finally seen the author reach the potential we knew she had since book 1. The Nonsense might have tripped some authors up, but we think this is Liz's natural element. The stars have surely aligned, but will the align again?

We have reached the final book of the All Souls Trilogy and it is... inconsistent to say the least. We're bringing out the Best Dropped Subplot Award for this one after plot line after plot line never pops up again and the continuity turns into a bat and flies away. But hey, we read it all, so we're going to rant.
