Me ha gustado, sentimiento agridulce, acabar una serie de libros tan larga, una serie que estuvo prácticamente conmigo desde que le encontré gusto a la lectura. Una serie de libros que me hizo ver que los vampiros y la literatura juvenil podían ser una buena combinación sin llevarlo a lo rosa.
Gracias Rachel Caine, disfruté y me enamoré de cada uno de los libros de Morganville.

Ahhh, what to say about the final book in the Morganville Vampires series? I started off 2013 with reading these books and ended the year by finishing the series - awesome-sauce! :D (Spoilers ahead....)
To be honest, after Fall of Night, I was super turned off by the book so I was like, "Eh, okay, whatever happens, happens irdc." I hated that we didn't get to see a lot of the other characters perspectives, I really wanted to know how Amelie was handling their unfortunate situation and I was really hoping that their escape was going to be a big one but... alas.... it was because of the Daylighters that they were taken out of their... Cage? (I'm gonna call it that)
Mrynin having enemies didn't surprise me; what surprised me was that he had an ARCH-ENEMY. That Daylighters guy was hell-bent on his plans, thinking his way was the right way but omg, wow. The anger that little man had lol - craaazy.
Can we just talk about how Michael is now A HUMAN?! The crazy thing that the Daylighters were working on ACTUALLY WORKED ON HIM?! Like holyyyyy cow! I was happy about it, but it was also an adjustment for me to deal with his non-vampy ways lol.
Once again, we find Shane in a shitty ass position -- now don't tell me you weren't tired of that because I honestly was.
I kinda found myself skimming through Shane and Claire's parts because I was upset at how quickly they seemed to patch things up. Granted, their lives were in danger (which is... 24/7) but no, his behavior was still unacceptable.
I really did love the relationship between Claire and Amelie -- it's been so powerful since the beginning and grew stronger as the series continued, awesome! :)
Loved the ending -- Michael and Eve renewing their vows while Claire and Shane got married along side them. Although, I do feel like Claire and Shane should have/could have waited but, whatever. It was still cute! :)
Overall, the series has been one hell of a ride with all the plots and whatnot! LOL. My friends and I are amazed that we're able to remember everything! Highly recommend!

I can't believe it's been eight years since my sister told me to read to Glass Houses and I can't believe this is the last book :'(
An exciting, and thrilling end to a great vampire series with a sweet and HEA ending. (but I think a bit too HEA for me but still enjoyable.)

Three days, that was the time plot of this book. And oh what a book!
fifteen books in this series, all of which sum up approximately two years in Morganville's history, and I have loved most of them, if not all of them.
It has been great watching the characters grow. The evolution of Claire's character I think is the biggest, but maybe that's mostly because she is the main character, but it remains the same nontheless. She grew from the quiet little shy girl who were too young and smart for her own good, to becoming a mastermind and really the savior of the town, even if nobody is acknowledging it, I will say it. lol.
i loved everything about the book, but not so much the ending. I didn't like (SPOILER) the marriage part. I would've liked it better had it ended with a normal day at the glass house, with the bickering of Eve and Shane, and Michael and Claire just smiling at them and eating, or everybody shouting over eachother over who was responsible for the dishes. I enjoyed the epilouge, however even on that I would've liked it better had t been more about Amelie showing some feelings and gratitude toward Claire, since it was in some ways from Amelie'�s POV, it would seen sweeter somehow.
But really though, all of this said, it is amazing that a series with this many books still remained this good. The author seriously knows her stuff, and her characters. Not many times did we get lost in the characters personality, they remained solid and steady, even when they found themselves lost in their own little heads/worlds.
It was refreshing, and always a delight to read another book of the Morganville Vampire series. Never did I get tierd, I always looked forward for the books, and man am I glad that there were more than one published every year.
I am not sad it ended, even though I will miss the characters. It's a good thing that this book series is turning into a TV series, so there will definitely be more of them, and whenever I feel like I'm away from Morganville too long, I will just randomly pick one of the books, and go back to southern part of USA and hang with them for a while.

I read all of these books over the span of about 2 and a half months when I was 11 years old. 11 year old me thoroughly fucking enjoyed the majority of these books so I have attempted to channel her when reviewing them. They are definitely not the best books but I enjoyed the plot and the characters - even if they pissed me off sometimes (a lot) - and would recommend if someone is looking for a light and easy read.
