I'm really proud of myself for finishing this series. I think this book did a good job of wrapping everything up, and even though it all ended exactly the way I was expecting it to, I still loved it. It was interesting to see the lengths that everyone were willing to go to prove that Rose was innocent, and I have to say, I was surprised to find out who actually killed the queen. My biggest complaint about this book is (view spoiler)[ the way things ended between Rose and Adrian. I was pretty sure that she was going to end up with Dimitri, but I really wish things would have ended with Rose and Adrian still being friends. I think Adrian is one of my favorite characters, and I wish he would have gotten a happier ending than he did. (hide spoiler)]
