Best book of the series. I enjoyed this one.
The one thing I struggled with was her explanation of Simon and Garfunkel's song "Cecilia"
I don't know why this bugged me, but the song "Cecilia" by Simon and Garfunkle is not about a promiscuous girl. Simon wrote it about the patron saint of music and struggling with writer's block. The general meaning is about a girlfriend breaking up with her boyfriend "when I come back to bed someone's taken my place," but later in the song, they get back together " jubilation, she loves me again." I had a hard time understand why she was so upset with the song.
That is just a rant, it did not change my opinion of the book.
