2.5 - Overall disappointed as the first two books were a breath of fresh air and I was very excited to finish the series. Beginning with the third, there was less connection to the characters and speed running plot points which made the story so much less meaningful. The story was okay but could have been so much better.

What can I say? I cried... I cried. I forgot about who was who and I had to read a recap of each book, but not because I forgot the details.. but rather because I didn’t have time to re-read all the books. If I had time I would re-read and then read this book...

Ms. Tahir, has made the characters you hate the most, almost, almost, sympathetic. I don’t even know if that is the correct word to use. But you end up feeling sorry for them.. a little bit. Maybe more than you thought possible.

I yelled once at this book when they were taking their time... actually more than once... but that just means she’s a really good writer. The build up was unbearable to my very impatient persona. But read the book, laugh, cry, get angry, and feel devastated, but elated in the end.

One of my favorites.
