(Relatedly, while, technically, one can read the books separately, the series epilogue at the conclusion of this book would be quite lost on that reader.)
With this book, Evie Dunore has produced a powerful and satisfying end to a series that is astonishingly accurate and deft in its portrayal of navigating the modern, western world as an intelligent girl, then woman. If Barbie, the movie, brought out all the feels, then this is your new favorite series. Enjoy!

Also, a scene or two in which piercing is discussed and some homophobia (challenged in the sense that the related character flees instead of stick around for it).haley49's review against another edition

I enjoyed my time with this book, but the series definitely went downhill after the stellar first book. Either way, I’m glad to have read and finished it, and to had such fun along the way!
