This book was crazy to put it mildly. We start off with Rose going through her final trials to become a guardian and learning that as soon as she sets off into the real world Dimitri plans on hunting her down and killing her. No biggy right? HA 
 Things I loved which is all of the things really 
 Adrian! Ah I adore Adrian, he's such a sweetie with just a tinge of crazy mixed in, it's wonderful 
 "He'd written me up a proposal of why dating him was a sound decision. It had included things like "I'll give up cigarettes unless I really, really need one" and "I'll unleash romantic surprises every week, such as: an impromptu picnic, roses, or a trip to Paris--but not actually any of those things because now they're not surprises." 
 "I knew you were a badass," continued Adrian. "But I didn't realize just how much until I saw you dropping guardians out there." 
 "Does that mean you're going to be nicer to me?" I teased. 
 "I'm already nice to you," he said loftily. "Do you know how badly I want a cigarette right now? But no. I manfully suffer through nicotine withdrawal--all for you." 
 Oh And we can't forget Abe. I wasn't sure of Abe but as we see more of him I really enjoy his character. I don't think he'll ever be a proper father figure in Roses life but I can see them having a good relationship. 
 "Most fathers don't threaten to disembowel their daughter's boyfriends." 
 "That's not true. And anyway, that's not what I actually said. It was much worse." 
 "What have you gotten me into?" I hissed at him. 
 "Me? What have you gotten yourself into? Couldn't I have just picked you up at the police station for underage drinking, like most fathers?" 
 Lissa really came into herself in this book, she is doing more for herself and being an amazing friend. Lissa fights for Rose and is there for her through this book and it was great to see how much Lissa would risk for Rose and visa versa. 
 Okay this sentence (view spoiler)[ "I've given up on you...Love fades. Mine has." (hide spoiler)] are you trying to hurt me? Because you succeeded (view spoiler)[ I truly wouldn't mind which way Rose went with the whole Dimitri/Adrian dilemma but I was leaning more towards Dimitri That way I can have Adrian right? XD (hide spoiler)] 
 Lissa and Christian in that fight scene! (view spoiler)[ I loved them working together, 3 times Lissa had to enter his ring of fire to try and save Dimitri and she didn't falter once. You go Lissa! (hide spoiler)] 
 ALSO can we talk about THAT ENDING (view spoiler)[ What in the hell was that? Rose locked up for killing the queen? Why would anyone believe the ridiculous evidence! I hate the government and their need for quick answers and somewhere to place the blame. I'm pretty sure Lissa will be able to fix it all but we'll just have to see how everything unfolds (hide spoiler)] 
 Did I mention this book was crazy? Because it is.. 
 *Side note* Could you imagine what Rose would look like now if she did get marked for each individual kill? That girl would have no where left on her body!
