The Ending
The end was easily one of the most exciting parts of the book. When you find out that Billy Dent escaped from prison and killed his first victim in only an hour, you know there is more trouble in the future. This is when you completely realize how dangerous Billy actually is. Also, when Jazz goes to visit the Impressionist, you see how intense Jazz can actually be when he tells the Impressionist to tell Billy that no matter how long it takes, he will catch him. Finally, in the final lines of the book it says, "'Can you not see the blood on my head!!' And there was. Oh, and there would be so much more...." This had me wishing that once I turned to the next page there would be another chapter, but to my disappointment there was not.

I agree, I found the ending to be truly exhilarating and was also very disappointed to find that I was already at the end. I really liked how the author, Barry Lyga, left a lead way to a possible sequel to the novel. I personally enjoyed this mysterious storyline that had you on your toes throughout the book and hope that a sequel is written!
I agree, I loved the ending in that it closed out the novel but left so much space for an epic sequel. I didn't want the story to end because it had been so good up until that point and I just wanted to know what was going to happen next. I also thought the ending truly revealed just how dangerous Billy is and that Jazz really wants to stop him.
