And what made me so angry was Amy seemed to want to kiss him too!!!

(view spoiler)


Gisbelle | 25787 comments I loved it!!!! Best ending ever!


Gisbelle | 25787 comments Did you cry Trisha? The last few chapters were so emotional for me.

Anyway, your theories are mostly correct!

Trisha | 30284 comments Yes, I got all teared up at the end. It was hard to say goodbye to such a great series

but seriously, I needed elder to be alive.
I was so angry at the end...I kept seeing "amy" "amy" "amy" at the top of all the chapters and I just kept thinking "nope nope nope"

and then....ahhhh :) so much better!!! I loved this book. It was painful how much her dad sucked.

but the way her mom and dad died...that was just awful...and Chris...ugh, I hated it. I hated that he gave Amy a shot and changed her.

but I LOVELOVE LOVE that Elder loved her anyway. No matter her eye color ;)

Trisha | 30284 comments I also liked that Amy signed the peace treaty
amy told off FRX

I love that she got to say "Elder would've wanted it this way" and "For Elder"

she was so strong at the end, stronger than she knew she could be. She'd grown up so much from being the girl frozen in book 1. or even the scared girl who woke up in book 1.


Gisbelle | 25787 comments It was heartwarming how much Amy loved Elder, right? It was as much as Elder loved her from the beginning.

So many quotes I loved from this book. It was a bit sad that this series is over. One of the best series of all time. Even better than The Hunger Games.

You think they might turn it into a movie?

Trisha | 30284 comments I would LOVE to see a movie! I think this would translate so well to the screen - don't you think?

don't you think?


Gisbelle | 25787 comments Yes, I think it would make a pretty cool movie :D

oh...oh my gosh. the kindle version of this book is SO EXPENSIVE!!! I need to see if my library has this book! LOL!

are you going to read it???


Gisbelle | 25787 comments I am not sure yet. And like you said it is a bot expensive. Besides, I want to read only one story among those 15.
