Fuuuuuuu-
Why is there not a 5 million star option?
I put off reading this final book in the trilogy for almost a year because I was so scared it wouldn't live up to my expectations. But this book was everything I needed and more. That first page hits you like a sucker punch but also grips you and the story doesn't let you go until the very end. This was such a worthy conclusion of one of my favourite series of all time. I will adore Beartown forever and am so happy that we got that final chapter.
