Destruction is the perfect title for this episode. The plot has become deeply emotional and even darker than I thought possible. With every episode I become so much more invested in the story and connected to these awesome characters. I hate loss, but I also understand it's part of what makes this story so captivating.Vanora is headed home to the Socoli mansion, where her brother and sister still live as vampires. She had escaped the horror of the awful things that took place on Halloween and attempted to begin a normal life with her friend and roommate, Rhonda. Or so she thought. Unfortunately, "normal" just isn't in the cards for this girl. The darkness followed her and wreaked havoc on her normal life. Now that she is back home, how will this play out? Armando seems to be back in the picture at full force (Thank you, Jesus!). Is it horrible to say that I would love to "watch" Armando rip Dan's neck out, by the way? I despise that kid. How is Vanora going to deal with a house full of vampires again? Her brother and sister have been living without censorship for too long to go back to their reserved ways, right?We've been shown glimpses of Vanora's trek home prior to this episode, but this time we finally learn the reason behind it. I have LOVED the prologues up until this point, always hooking me from the first page and letting me peek into the unknown. Will there be no more glimpses now that we are up to speed? Those first couple of pages are what pulled me back into the deep dark world that Rhiannon has created. I'm not too worried about it, though, as Rhiannon has never disappointed me.When the heck is the next episode? This last wait was WAY TOO LONG! I'm grateful to have this opportunity so I'm definitely not complaining, much.*eARC received from the author in exchange for an honest review.
