I am broken. *by A***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 24, 2018* 4.5 starsPlot: Holy mother of God, this series is pure genius! Before the Devil Breaks You served more as a two-parter for the epic finale between the Diviners and the King of Crows, but nothing felt unnecessary or like filler. The hard part about writing reviews for sequels is that you have to be insanely vague because NO ONE likes spoilers, so let me take a stab at it!This was the novel that Evie and company got their answers. We learned more about Project Buffalo, how Diviners came to be, and how Will and Sister Walker were connected; I don't think I could count the times my mouth fell open in shock. Where Before the Devil Breaks You differed from The Diviners and Lair of Dreams was that there wasn't an entity that the group had to destroy. There were ghosts who committed terrible crimes and set New York City on edge, but they mostly served as puppets for the Ultimate Boss Battle, because of that, I felt that the focus wasn't so much on the paranormal. Instead, there was a lot of backstory to each of the Diviners and what purpose they had.Characters: Like all of these books, it's the characters that stole the show in Before the Devil Breaks You. I was happy to see Ling join the group and explore her own struggles. This was the time for decisions and all of the Diviners had sacrifices to make. Surprisingly, the character who I enjoyed reading about the most was Theta. Before the Devil Breaks You explored her past before she became Theta Knight, and how she fit in with the group of Diviners.I'm still waiting for Evie's full transformation. In Lair of Dreams, it felt like she hit rock bottom and I was hoping that Before the Devil Breaks You would lead to her growth, but it looks like The Sweetheart Seer has a bit more growing to do.Another character I was happy to see in Before the Devil Breaks You was Mabel. Her previous story arcs made it seem like she was destined to play the side character, but it was good to see her take charge of her life in this book and choose right from wrong.And now lastly, the romance. The subtle love triangle between Evie, Sam, and Jericho wasn't so subtle in Before the Devil Breaks You and I didn't like how quickly Evie could go from one or the other. I have always been Team Jericho and I have a few choice words about his arc in Before the Devil Breaks You (none are good). At this point, I would rather Evie be alone as it seemed that she was just jumping from guy to guy as a distraction.Worldbuilding: I'm under the impression that Libba Bray is a literary genius; she makes writing seem so easy and effortless!I What I loved about Before the Devil Breaks You was the subtle jabs at current American politics and how we're fated to repeat our atrocities. I don't want to know how much research this series requires, but I appreciate Libba Bray for writing the glitz and glam of 1920s America while never forgetting the genocide, inequality, and blood that helped pave the way for a small percentage of those who deemed themselves "true Americans." There was a line in the author's note that really made me sit and think; Libba said that she wrote Before the Devil Breaks You to acknowledge the ghosts of America's past and for all of us to realize that we live in a haunted house. I think that line will stay with me for a long time.Short N Sweet: Before the Devil Breaks You will leave you wanting more. If you haven't read this series yet, now is the perfect time to start! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Favorite Series By Far *by M***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 27, 2020* This book is near perfection. It blows my mind what Libba has done with this story—from a writing perspective and a topical one. She somehow manages to balance a beautifully diverse, uniquely voiced ensemble cast of characters with a chilling storyline full of thrills, socio-political commentary on America in the 1920s, our treatment of mental health, political leanings, and how a person can be coaxed into extremism or passivity. She's not afraid to point out the gaping wounds of America's history and the subsequent ghosts we must not forget. It is a book—a series—SO necessary under today's leadership, and one I truly hope makes waves when it comes to an end.On a story level, Libba is a master weaver. She highlights the colors of each character, creating their unique struggles, hopes, dreams, ambitions and then spins a whole tapestry in which they are worked seamlessly together without losing that which makes them unique. She shows their personalities vividly through their dialogue and responses to a situation, the way they cope with tragedy and victory, the way they interact with the world around them. She makes me die laughing in places (usually at Sam and Evie's tomfoolery), swoon and blush (again usually at Sam and Evie), weep profusely, and grit our teeth in anger. Her world is incredibly immersive, the 1920s grit of New York painted in a few simple words.My first time reading this book, I was holed up in a London hostel holding tight to my phone with each passing page on my kindle. This second time, I listened to the audiobook—something I cannot recommend enough—which added brand new depth and made me pause in places I hadn't before. I look forward to years of rereads with this series and this book in particular, and am not even a little prepared for The King of Crows to drop. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.is/products/47223403-before-the-devil-breaks-you](https://www.desertcart.is/products/47223403-before-the-devil-breaks-you) --- *Product available on Desertcart Iceland* *Store origin: IS* *Last updated: 2026-05-18*
