Somewhere between 3 stars or 4 stars, I don't know. I'm still quite shaken. 
 In most parts, it was platonic, I guess? What really turned it around was the plot twist. That was really unexpected (for me). I also didn't expect the ending to be like that and I'm quite happy with it. I couldn't have asked for a better ending for this series. Such a successful series this was, Lauren Kate. Bravo.

 I did not state this, but I thought that it lacked something. I just couldn't pinpoint what.
