This is by far my favorite book of the series. It's so raw and emotional. I loved a lot of the filler in this book. I thought it was necessary and great to see parts of the story that we hadn't glimpsed before. I really fell for Adrian in this one. This is the first time I had the triangle feeling. The conflicts of this book are what make it. It will have you second guessing your own judgments and opinions. You'll be flip flopping like mad. I really felt for Rose. And Dimitri...is just so Dimitri.
