After reading the last book, I was strongly believing that they just kept getting worse and worse as the series went on, but this one brought me right back to enjoying this series! And I absolutely LOVE how it had alternate endings, where you got to choose how you wanted it to end. Obviously I read all three, and I've got to say that last mysterious ending was definitely my favorite and not what I was expecting one bit! Almost everyone in this book got what they deserved in the end! Reign has such a way with words, I'm sure I'll read more in the future.

Can't believe I was rooting for certain people by the end

This book was by far one of my favorites of the series. I love me some bricks (the only characters i think i love more, are Mason and Banks wales, from t. Styles war series), but I never expected to feel the way I felt about swoopes or ming at the end. I was left with tears rolling down my face, which left me speechless. I don't want to ruin the story so thats all I'll say but this is definitely worth the read.

FOR THIS INSTALLMENT SHYT LIST V: SMOKIN' CRAZIES THE FINALE HAD ME NOT KNOWING HOW TO FEEL.
BRICKS, SWOOPES, MING-WHAT CAN I SAY. I CAN HONESTLY SAY I WASN'T REALLY EXPECTING IT. BUT, ONE THING'S FOR CERTAIN: THE MOST DANGEROUS PERSON IN A STORY NO MATTER WHAT THE TITLE MAY BE IS THE UNSTABLE MABLES.
I'M NOT EXACTLY SURE IF THIS NEEDED A SL 6 & ANYTHING THAT APPEARS TO BE AN OPEN-ENDED STORY MAY NOT ALWAYS END WELL OR COME TO A ACCEPTABLE CONCLUSION EITHER.

I finished this series!!! I really enjoyed every book in this series. Reign held my attention with every book and had me excited about the ending. But how it ended was amazing! I truly didn't see it coming. Any of it! It says alot about the great writer Reign is. You gotta read the book and find out what happens!

So as much as this series has me hooked; I’m sort of getting annoyed by it already. Like come on!!!!!! BUT with each book I do have to say the development and the story line, and the complexity….:I’m impressed. I had to take a little break from reading the books. But pretty darn good. I can’t wait to finish the series to see how it all ends.

I enjoy the first ending. I really enjoyed all five books. Yvonne was a one crazy sister.

This was a good read. I enjoyed the first to the last. Yvonne was one crazy chic. I would love reading another book about her

Those endings!

I should’ve kept my first pick of endings because now the other two are an option in my mind lol what a great series though. You never thought that you’d be routing for the bad guy (girl) @ the end

This book was a stretch. To have a part 6 in the making is not worth it. I appreciate that there was a successful ending however to leave the reader with open ended options is not necessary.

A little better than part 4..still not as good as parts 1-3. Horrible ending! Depending on which one you choose (hint hint) but the first 3 parts were definitely the best

I have really been enjoying this series. It has kept me on the edge of my seat from the beginning all the way up until now. I can't wait to find out how the story will end.

Interesting

I liked option one as an ending. I hate to know Swoopes died but at this point Yvonna deserves a happy ever after.

" Shyt List 5" is the final installment in the Shyt list series by T. Styles. All the pieces of the puzzle come together in this final entry. Yvonna is desperately searching for the secret organanization that abused her as a child. With the help of Swopes, Bricks, and Ming, along with new characters along the way, will Yvonna be able to cross the names off her biggest Shyt List to date...or will she meet her demise in the process of trying?
I'm so sad to see this series come to an end but T. Styles definitely came through with sending it off in a good way. This one did have a little bit of a slower pace than previous installments. Option 1 (:

I can't believe I bought this! I am thoroughly and completely disappointed. The tone of this book was nothing like the previous four. I REALLY want my money back! This all could've been summed up in part 4. I got to 92% and knew it was over and I had been bamboozled. I will NEVER buy another book from Cartel again. This was a story that was uneventful and tenuously drawn out. I'm sooo pissed, I just don't want to go on with this review. I don't recommend at all, borrow or get from the library. Save your hard earned cash on this one! Oh yeah, the "choose your own ending"......why????

I was excited to read the final installment of the Shyt List series, and as usual T. Styles did not let me down. Yvonna was back to her crazy antics and needed to be committed in somebody's institute. I really enjoyed the treat that T. Styles had for her fans at the end which allowed them to choose their own ending. I choose to read all three endings as I wanted to see which one I wanted to end the series with. I wonder if Delilah will show up any of T. Styles future books. Only time will tell!

Shyt List is one of my favorite series. The places that T.Styles/ Reign's mind travels to in order to pen a story simply amaze me. My only disappointment with this series is it had to end. I am still shaking from the emotional rollercoaster called Yvonna's life. I love how readers had the option to choose from 3 alternate endings. I opted to read all 3 but my favorite would have to be option 1 although I believe 3 is more Yvonna's style.

Although this was my first read by this author I can't seem to get enough of her writing. This wasn't my favorite Shyt List but it wasn't bad by a long shot. I have followed Yvonna and Ming from the very beginning and I really hated to see it all come to an end. Yvonna brought along a few friends and left a few more bodies stinking, but in the end she got her man. Four stars****

Wow

I read book five before I read the rest. Overall the series was good and crazy lol. I like how she let us choose our own ending. Of course I chose option 1..I loved it and wanted to see Yvonna actually be happy. Option 2 I wasn't feeling that at all. Option 3 I can see that happening and it's reality. But I'm still sticking with option 1 lol.

This book was actually fairly decent. This book & the first book were the best ones. I did not like the pick ur own ending-I thought it was a cop-out & that the author should have just finished the story. But overall, the dialogue in the book at times had me laughing out loud-& the book was good.

The book was good, but I'm not happy about being able to choose your ending. I just wish she would have just wrote the ending she wanted us to have.

I like the Shyt series, but I honestly think that she got away with to much and not have to pay any consequences for her actions. So in the end it kind of disaappointed me with the way it ended.
