"I enjoyed this book. I did find some passages were rather "show don't tell" and I found the ending rather abrupt: one, because I did not expect it, and two, because some of the storylines seemed unfinished. I was disappointed because I had been enjoying reading it quite a bit until that point."
— Heather (4 out of 5 stars)
" I mostly enjoyed the story, but I have to say that I am rather disappointed in the ending, especially as it is the ending of the entire series! Christine didn't end up with the man I felt she should be with, so it kind of cast a shadow over the entire book for me. "
