I felt like the ending was a little fast. Didn't like how they didn't wrap up what happened to Sibby or who the boy she left with was really.

Whew. Check Trigger Warnings. So...I don't even know what to say. At 50% and about 75% I genuinely didn't know what else could happen. Woe is me. And the characters because we all got clotheslined. I managed to get through the really intense beginning all the way to the end. I'm glad I did and at the same time I'll be content to never re-read these books. Not saying that as a bad thing, just a "I've experienced it and can check it off the list" way. Ultimately, I enjoyed the overall storyline.
