** spoiler alert ** 
 Ahh, what a great, amazing book!! It was so what I expected and so much more!! I am so happy, and so devasted about the ending. 
 The ending was horrible! Not that it was written horrible, it was written perfectly, so much that I cried! CAUTION: don't read this boom when your at work! 
 Mead has truly captivated me with Rose. I feel rose's sorrow, happiness, and every emotion she feels as if I have a bond with her. It hurt so much what happened with Dimitri, when they actually had sex, and then they were happy to have found a way to be together. But then the tragedy!!! 
 And then there's lissa. I love lissa, but I was a bit annoyed that she isn't there for Rose. When Rose has been there for her her entire life. But that is what the guardians are taught so we can't blame her. I still love Lissa for her sweetness, and kindness. And with Lissa there's Christian. I LOVE Christian! He became alot more likable throughout the novel- Except when he's fighting with Adrian because Adrians just a badass and awesome. 
 Anyways this book was so good I'm excited to read the next one!
