I read this a while back, and since watching the show, it has resurfaced feelings I had for the ending of the book. I did not like the ending, at all.

So Good. A really good last book and I offical still like Mal. Nikolia is Nikolai. Tamar is Tamar. Toyla is Toyla. The Darkling is crazy. I want to kill him sorry what he to Nikolai is horrible. The End was sad but cute. Byeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Best of the series. Wish the Nikolai thing had more pay-off, but I imagine it will in his duology. Loved Genya's arc. I think the ending was nice, bitter-sweet, and realistic. ...more
