Jennifer Lynn Barnes is a master at writing characters that are both deeply loveable, and relatably flawed. Each and every character was such a joy to read, they were unique and vivid and real and I love every one of them. They mysterys in this final installment were a lot of fun, although it certainly got pretty convoluted by the end. And speaking of the end, it was so wonderful and satisfying, I couldn't wipe the grin off of my face for the last 30 pages - absolutely fantastic ending.
