Remember when I wondered back in Book 2 or something how they were going to fill a seven book series? They did good. This is the sisters' book, Maisie and Jesse. And M's PoV gives this book its own tone, with that "why can't I have a normal high school life" angst to gently flavor the "why can't I have a normal adult happily ever after". This whole book is the showdown in Cochise, Sand and Fire. Ally spends a lot of time on Jesse's shoulder to remind her not to be a monster and not to kill bystanders, while Gabriel is the angel on her other shoulder with his own concerns.

Soooo, this book dragged. I can't even give it a 2/5 stars rating, because I was so bored. Having a whole book dedicated to the final battle may not be the smartest thing. It felt like I was just reading the same thing over and over again.

So what about the last book in the series? If I think the series is being dragged by this point, I'm afraid what I'll think of the last book. Gonna give it a go, though, as I already own it, but first a pause from the series and hopefully finding an audiobook that engages me as much as most of this series have managed.

I mean, I finished all but the 1st book within 30 hours of starting them. Even the 1st, that was messy, I finished within 48 hours. What does it say that I used 3 days on the shortest book in the series, and even now had to FORCE myself to finish it?

ok, I'm done rambling now.

Slightly disappointed, hence 4 Stars and not 5 Stars this time, but my hopes are very high for the final instalment!
