I just finished reading the book this morning and I have to say I loved it. The characters are brilliant. What I found most appealing about the series is that when a new character was introduced you felt what the characters felt about that person... like Tom Culpeper... I hate him! 
 I think I fell in love with Cole in this book. I wasn't quiet sure of him in Linger because Sam and Grace were not sure but he really showed his potential in this book. He provided some comic relief from the tough times encountered and he is a perfect balance to Sam and Grace... He makes them youthful in a way I guess. 
 Sam and Grace..... What can I say? They're perfect. Reading about their awkwardness is a great delight. Even though we know they have had sex, are madly in love with each other, and can basically read each others mind, they still have a sense of shyness about them which can only be normal in a first time relationship no matter how serious they are. 
 Some things that I loved about this trilogy are: 
 One thing I absolutely love about this series is that they have sex. Now, before we think we are going to read about it we don't actually get the chance to see the actual scene... It definitely had more detail then Twilight that's for sure. 
 The characters are actual teenagers and you get to see their lustful thoughts that you know they should be thinking about.... they're not read between the lines.... you know exactly what they want to do without having to read into it. 
 What I also love about the series is that they are proper teenagers. In other books the teenagers are adults, know everything and need no help but in this series the teenagers are actually teenagers. They're unsure, rebellious, think like teenagers and have teenage emotions. If you were to remove the wolves from the series it would be like reading real life in my opinion. 
 The one thing that I didnt like about this book was the ending. It left alot of unanswered questions and I really wanted at least some kind of comment based on where their future brought them.
