More Evelyn Incidents!
Loved it, just like all the other books.
Every time Benjamin sets up a new Evelyn book, I have to go back and reread all the rest before the release date, just to refresh myself. (Yes, this means I've read the series five times or so.) The fact that this book picks up almost immediately after the end of the last almost makes the first part feel cut from book 5 and used to introduce book 6...not that that's a bad thing. Length *is* a concern.
Evelyn's biggest enemy continues to be herself, which is I think what makes her more interesting than most overpowered main characters. Yes, there are larger fish in her pond, but encountering them is rare, no matter how much she craves it. This means that Evelyn is usually faced with reining in her temper or otherwise avoiding *using* all that power she has.
Which, of course, makes the moments she can cut loose truly entertaining.
Part 4 of this book was one of the most amusing things I think has ever happened in this whole series. And the finale for it was concerning, then touching.
I'd be sad but satisfied if this is the end of Evelyn's story...but it's a damn good story, and *if* this is the end, it's an extremely satisfying way to end it.
