 So I am at the close of the series and I am feeling so bittersweet with Maniac. As much as I loved this one here, it was still tough to read it. Because I knew it would be at the end of the series, I do know that there is a new series coming up that has some connecting books connected to this one. But in this one is where we finally get the romance between Aiden and Thomas. These two we have been seeing their built up relationship throughout the whole series and it was packed with everything that I have come to love in this series but its definitely a bit more emotional and hard to read at times. We definitely get to see the side to Thomas side to his story and it was really hard to see so much of his vulnerabilities be shown as in previous books he has been this commanding alpha leader of the group.

We really get to see the depths and history to their relationship and seeing them work through their issues is hard to see because they both have been hurting each other but seeing them learn to fight for each other instead of battling each other constantly was so wonderful to see. To see their relationship really come together was epic and I loved seeing the epilogue and what their lives are like in the future. Definitely eager to see what the author comes up with next.
