The reason I finished this book so quick is because I did a lot...I mean A LOT, of skimming. I really didn't enjoy this book at all :(
Here we go, time to read about what an idiot she is again and about every character being obnoxiously vague except for Shelby.
Ope, and more awful grammar (or typos?…or both)
Notes while reading again:
- Oh look, a few pages in where Lauren Kate decides that even though this is the last book in the series that NO CONTEXT IS NEEDED STILL.
- “on the roof across from Luce’s window, where they used to watch her sleep.” Okay Edward Cullen. pls stahp.
- Let me guess…Giovanni is going to be Miles in a past life.
- Wait, she just leaves Italy like that? How pointless was this?
- Nice. Daniel groomed a 13 year old (blah blah past Luce blah, still.)
- “There one the floor in front of her was a gargoyle.” Is this book supposed to be a joke? Like…am I being punked? And then she decides to just trust random ass gargoyle (who had morphed into boyfriend and tricked her for a minute, but yeah okay, super trustworthy)
- But oh look, the random gargoyle is already smarter than you in regards to your relationship, nice.
- Luce: “How did you know where I was before this?” Gargoyle: “Because…I’m Bill. I know things” and Luce is like “okay whatevs.” Stupid, stupid girl.
- Luce: I want to know about my past lives. Also Luce: -rudely interrupts Bill telling her about this past life like k im going in bye-
- Daniel gets smacked by 1800’s Lucinda and might fuck up space and time and all that because of it, and he damn well deserves it for being a secretive and controlling prick.
- Book throws new words like Anachronism and does not give a reader who may not know what that means any idea of what it means.
- Luce to 1800s Roland: “My current life is not a mess” you have been bitching about it this entire time stfu.
- *1800s Lucinda does melodramatic sigh to get attention* Luce: “Bill’s right, this past self is nothing like current me.” uh I beg to differ you whiny little shit.
- “Suicide was more to luxury, not afforded to mortals” just…excuse me? Yup, glorify suicide too, good move.
- More annoyingly vague conversations between Past and Present Daniel, Daniel and Cam, Bill and Luce. Sigh.
- It’s always someone knowing Shakespeare on a personal level, yawn.
- “His half of the curse is so much worse than mine” bro you DIE A FIERY DEATH EVERY TIME THIS MAN AIN’T WORTH IT.
- I’m at the scene where Daniel is telling Miles to cut his cleave from him or whatever and I don’t have a specific thought, just wanted to note that this is stupid.
- You trusting Bill is going to end badly and I understand you have not been smart but come on.
- Book still gives no context on why siding with Heaven is not an immediate good thing.
- Knew it.
- You’re telling me the only thing stopping Satan from destroying the world or whatever is DANIEL not picking a side? Man I don’t know if I can keep reading.
- Good Lord their kissing sounds so unpleasant. “Their teeth clicked” stoppppp.
- “Why did Daniel see happy to see him” how have we not figured out yet that Cam isn’t “evil” per-say?
- Damn it, there’s another one??

nekonečná cesta do minulosti ma zničila akokeby naozaj ale predvídateľnosť a otravný bill to pokazili.
a bojím sa čo sa bude robiť ďalej prepana.

It's definitely an intriguing concept--getting lost in space and time, continually experiencing past lives--but I think it's a bit overdone. My interest began to wane after the first 2 or 3 stories of Luce's tragic endings and Daniel's self-loathing resentment. It made the storyline too predictable and therefore lost its thrill on me. I still enjoyed reading it to an extent (stories with a love triangle somehow always seem to draw me in), but I'd say the previous 2 installments of the series are better in that they have a more diverse sequence of events to keep the reader interested.
I loved this book and I hated it.
I like the fact that we get a point to it, in the last 40 pages or so. I did like the past lives thing.
Being kept in the dark the WHOLE FREAKING BOOK? That's stupid. I'm not a character, I deserve to know what the hell is going on. The book can twist and turn but not having any information at all meant the twists and turns were lost on me save for Bill. Who didn't see that coming?
I am keen to read Rapture but it better be more than this was. I don't understand why this is selling so much. People need standards.

Kate does a great job creating a relationship that feels authentic, a storyline that moves well and writes in a way that I just really enjoy reading. Will read the next one too.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED.
I adore this sequel, and I am glad that's the last (or maybe it isn't ?, god i am not so informed). Read it in one day, loved this seeking thing and their love. More later.
