I gave it four stars because although the beginning and middle were absolutely slow and boring, the ending completely made up for it. The ending reminded me why I started reading the series in the first place, and why I'm going to read the next book even though it took me forever to get through this one.

This has been by far my favorite book in the series so far. The pacing was great, the plot twists were ones I didn't see coming, the characters and their relationships evolved in beautiful ways, and i always say that a book that can make me sob is a book that is absolutely phenomenal. Those emotions are so powerful and you never forget something that hurts to the point of tears. The character death in this book had me crying so hard; it touched me deeply and I felt as if I too had lost a loved one that would forever be irreplaceable. L.J Smith wrote a real gem when she wrote this book and I will forever be disappointed that this book was the final book she wrote for the series. But I'm going to keep going because I've come too far to turn back now. I can only hope that the books written by the ghost writer can live up to the high standards Smith set when she started this series.
medium-paced

So, Elena continues to piss me off...and Bonnie.

This one, though, was better than the previous book. For those not fans of the horror genre some of the details may have been a bit much, but it very much helped keep me interested.

I also think some parts were a tad ridiculous and too convenient still, but a little less so than before. The very very end also did not surprise me, and I’m wondering how this will continue.

2.5 stars.

This really could have been shorter. This, like the others, wasn't a bad book. I just think it has lost the essence of the original books.

This one...was REALLY great. I just won't buy anymore of the series now. I liked it better when she wrote her series. Sadly this was the last one she wrote herself.

Maybe i am just done with this series or maybe I should of reread the other to refresh my memories, but this book wasn't as good as I thought it could have been. However it was enjoyable. I really liked how we finally get to many truths in this book. We find out about Elena's parents, about Meredith's secrets and about relationships.

I thought that the book ?would have? been a good ending to the series. I usually write in my reviews that books don't have enough closure, but I think that this one did even though it kinda leaves you in a cliff hanger. I think that th ending kinda fit the series. I don't think that there needed to be another 3 books but LJ or another. Even though I like the end being left to my imagination I will probably read the other 3 and see where all the revolutions go from here.
