5 Words: Was it really worth it? 
 So, after THAT ending in the last book, I wasn't sure how this one would pan out. And I don't think i really got into it until near the end. 
 You know HP7, when things started getting a bit fan-fic and you were certain you'd already read it (but you hadn't, you'd just read so many damn fanfics) and it didn't feel right? That was this. 
 Although part of me wishes I'd stopped at book 3, I'm glad I carried on and pushed through to the end, because the ending was worth it. Even if it was very predictable. VERY predictable. 
 The best thing about this book was Rose and Lissa finally sorting their shit out. I loved how they interacted all through the first book and was quite sad that it seemed to be trailing off and petering out. Because they're the best type of best friends. And then there's all of these poisonous relationships thrown into the mix, and there's nothing I like more than manipulation and infatuation and obsession. 
 The worst thing was probably the "dead-air", all of the times that nothing seemed to be happening. It felt like it happened an awful lot. 
 Even after the long slog that a lot of this book felt like, I will be continuing on. Because I'm still holding out hope. 
 Rose & Dimitri FOREVER.
