So I read this book after being away from the series for probably 15 years and to be perfectly honest, I fucking hated it. MAJOR plot spoilers ahead.
I think it was a messy and unnecessary ending to the series. I think the same messages could have been imparted without taking away one of the characters that was at the heart of the series and making all the girls weird and suspicious of each other. I was so deeply annoyed by so much of how this book played out.
Honestly I think this book is a betrayal of the readers, the characters, and the spirit of the series, but maybe I'm a dramatic bitch.
It got 1.5 stars because the emotional impact still got me in the end, but I wouldn't read it again without significant duress.
