Last Day of My Life by Lani Lynn Vale is the fourth book in her Freebirds series. It wasn't until after I started reading this that I realized it was a fourth book. I HATE jumping in the middle of a series. However, while I did feel like there were characters I probably would know more about if I had read previous books I didn't feel like this book lacked anything. I will be reading the other books in the series though, for sure. 
 This book was intense and powerful with a large dose of dark and despairing. Despite the circumstances the characters found themselves in, however, they were some strong people with amazing coping skills. I couldn't put this book down. It was that good. 
 Winter is an amazingly tough woman and has found her equal in Jackopa. The things they have endured together and apart is heartbreaking and all this is in the first few chapters - there's more hard times coming though, and quickly. I hate to say anything specific about the events throughout this book as you should experience them all first-hand as they happen. I really recommend this book.
