 Well. So many loose ends! But then I guess it's not The End. Boy do I want to just go right into Bloodlines! But I have some review copies to appreciate first. Oh, who am I kidding, I can totally get this to work! 
 I feel a little disappointed. I'm not sure if it's because of the fact I was expecting a more wrapped up ending, or if it's because I lost connection there with such a long gap between books 3 and 4. Obviously the lack of a wrap up isn't an issue, as I've mentioned, but it feels odd! And I'd be even less impressed if I'd been reading these as they came out, I can tell you! 
 I'm still convinced most of the other Guardians are idiots, let me tell you. And I'm pretty sure that Rose's stake had Dimiti's and Lissa's fingerprints on it too, so what gives? I doubt she'd have cleaned it...Also, I had a whole speech for her to give to Dimitri planned out in my head, so disappointed she didn't use it. Still she did good on her own. As to her conversation with Adrian, it didn't quite go how I thought it would. I was all ready to demand why she didn't say it was AGAIN not still and that he knew the situation and she'd tried and owed him nothing, but she give quite a good argument and I'm pretty sure he's going to find out what she means soon. 
 Abe was by far my favourite character! I mean, come on! he was fantastic! I love how we slowly see just how Rose is exactly her parents daughter through the series. I also realised, reading this book, that there's foreshadowing all over the damned place! I don't know why it took me so long to see either. OR the love triangle, I mean really. How'd that get passed me? 
 I missed Christian in this book too. Obviously he was there, but we were without Lissa again so her storyline was through Rose, there was little Full Christian, just diluted Christian, which is a shame cause he's funny. 
 I have to say I'm glad the reconsiliation wasn't instant after the initial rebuttal. While I'd have liked what Dimitri said he should have done, the fact that we get to see it happen all over again is nice. It shows it wasn't an accident. I'd also love to see how the conversation between Dimitri and Rose's parents went because that's got to be all sorts of awkward and funny - considering Rose is just like them both. But there's a novella set after, hopefully that will give us something! 
 As a whole, I'm probably going to read this series again. I want to let it fade first, then read it all together. See if the lack of a gap makes it better! 
 And while I understand that we find out about Jill and Sydney and Adrian in Bloodlines, I do wonder about Sonya and Mikhail. And Robert. AND Joshua and his people. Will they be covered? Will they get their own stories? Only one way to find out I guess.
