Human Rites brings the series Her Majesty's Royal Coven to a nice ending. The loose ends are brought together, and we get a real conclusion. 

I really enjoy the writing of Juno Dawson. It is contemporary and has a lot of references to pop culture, but for the right people they will hit. Spice Girls and Buffy are some that come up now and then, and I think they fit well. The characters are well rounded for the most part, and they're an easy squad to get attached to. The LGBTQ+ and feminist themes in the books are written in a way that comes across as natural and true to real world situations. 

It's a series I would definitely recommend reading, and I'm excited to see what Juno Dawson will write in the future.
