I've never been a true fan of this series, I always found them mildly pleasant, always started each book in the series thinking: "This is it, this will take my breath away."
And I must admit I'm always disappointed.
I'm not saying is a bad series, because is not, is very entertaining, it was my very first vampire series, even before I read Twilight.
I was very excited about this final installment, I waited greatness from it, maybe that's where I was mistaken, because even though it had a surprising ending, I was not enthralled, I just wanted it over.
The series takes were it left off, Bianca a wraith and Lucas just to become a vampire. Afterlife is very much about forgiveness and acceptance, so you don't have to fret about unanswered questions as certain series' ending *cough* Vampire Academy! *cough*
Anyway, it has smoky vampires, chilling ghosts and all kinds of fun. If you've enjoy the last books you are certainly to enjoy this one and if you've skimmed through them you will so again in this one.
I think my main complaint is the continuous difference in of, shall we say, "substance" between Bianca & Lucas. She was a vampire, he was a human, then she became a ghost and he became a vampire!
And Lucas as vampire: can we say annoying much? He's always whining, I mean, he doesn't outright say it, but even Bianca knows it.
About the things I like about the series and has made me stayed through the last 4 books is Lucas, even if he's a whiner and sometimes a bit tortured, he still loves Bianca. Also, some of the secondary characters like Vic and Ranulf make you have a good laugh.
Despite all these things, is still a great series, so if you've read the last three, read this one too. But I'll always wondered what would have happened if...
Claudia Gray is awesome and can't wait for her Balthazar series, even if I initially found him annoying, but kind of love him now after this book.
The series is finally over and I have to say I don't really know what to think. The first two books I was very interested in, Bianca was a great character that did not cry and whine like most do in the young adult genre. Then the third book came which was very slow and rather uninteresting. Finally there was the last book and I enjoyed it, but the ending was not very settling for me. I believe that it depends on the reader in the end, but for me it was not happy or sad. It was a strange combination of both.
I like all the supernatural twists and turns of Bianca and Lucas, but I can't help wishing things could just be simple for them just once and they could get a happy ending. However, I know that would not make for interesting books. So we are probably in store for more drama. Lucas is human, dead, then a vampire, human again. Bianca is neither a full vampire or a wraith, then she becomes one of the most powerful wraiths. Mrs. Bethany was Black Cross, then left them and turned into a vampire, tried to become human again, died and killed her husband... This book gave me whiplash with all the inside stories and changes in the characters. What could be in store for us next?
This book broke my heart, filled me with happiness, made me smile, made me cry...Balthazar and Patrice are definitely my favorite characters in this series and Skye is just so adorable. However, I still don't like Raquel and Dana.
Rereading Evernight and reading the rest of the series have been the best decisions I've taken so far this year.
The Evernight Academy has now a place in my heart that could never be replaced by any other book.

Lovely ending to a lovely series. I'll definitely be checking out Gray's other books.
Minor Spoilers.
This was my favorite book in the series by far. It was complicated and sweet at the same time.
I was a little torn by the ending, i was left wanting an imperfect ending, but I got one that was a little too neat and perfect. It made all the characters happy, and able to walk away in the end.
Maybe Claudia wanted to make sure the story finished there.
I cannot wait for Balthazar's story

2 1/2 stars. Evernight was a promising start to an intriguing series. At some point, however it hit a snag along the way which made it difficult to keep my interest.
no me acordaba del final y sinceramente estoy un poco decepcionada :(
