Review from second read 3/21/13: Wow, so I first read this book almost two years ago and upon the second reading, I can definitely say my opinion has improved!!! Still my least favorite of the trilogy but I bumped my rating up from three stars to four.
I think I was SO excited to finish the series the first time around that I raced through the ending too much and lost a lot of content by jumping here and there. I had the audiobook this time so my pacing was set for me!
There were a lot of things I didn't remember about the end so that was really fun still being able the be surprised.
Oh, and the epilogue was sooooo cheesy. I could have totally done without that (and forgot it was even in the book).
Original review from first read 6/9/11 (3 stars): An interesting ending to the series, but I have to say, I was a little disappointed. There was a giant build up to the end of the entire novel and it seemed to all end too quickly and I was confused as to what was going on at first. The end caught me by surprise because I didn't know it was happening. All-in-all, it was still a good read, enjoyable, and a must to finish the series.
