I know they say it's about the journey, not the destination, and boy was this a journey. I'm not too sure about the destination.
I guess this is my way of saying I'm still not too sure how I feel about the latter part of the book, although I absolutely loved everything until then, and I am somewhat satisfied with the ending. It's not necessarily a bad feeling
