Such a great addition to the series!!

I read it for new years, but it wasn't white Christmas or new years. It would have been a great book for those days in between, but it was pretty good after too!

I really loved Jack and the Skeffington family. I loved Desiree too, although I felt her character was a little all over the place - the author wanted to make her independent and into things like mechanics and physics, but it just felt like those things were shoe-horned in rather than being naturally part of the story.

Also, neither good nor bad, there was a small spicy scene in this one after two books without them. They seem to be throw away events and I'm not sure why the author has them in since her heart is in the characters and not the spice.
