So, Katsa is this awesome get-out-of-my-way-or-I-will-MOVE-you-out-of-my-way girl, who, by the way, is totally beautiful sounding even though she doesn't give a crap. And Po, of course, someone I would totally fall in love with, were he not already taken by Katsa. Oh, and also if he weren't a storybook character. That's important too.... 
 I really don't have any problems with this book. Whatsoever. PEARFECTION! *kisses fingers* 
 I was really surprised with the way it ended. I expected it to end happily, with Katsa killing Leck, et cetera, and it did. I just didn't expect it WHEN it happened. It was really fast. You know, one minute she is carrying Bitterblue to safety inside of Po's castle and is about to meet Po's family, and then..... 
 SHZAAYUM! LECK'S A GONER! 
 Maybe Kristen Cashore was rushing the ending. But it fit, still, so I was okay with it :D 
 I was really sad when Po went blind. I wondered why he didn't tell Katsa. I mean, you may not want to tell your family, but Katsa is supposed to be like your most trusted person ever, right? (Maybe that's just my love of Disney princesses and happily ever afters speaking....) I liked the way that Kristen Cashore wrote it, though. I really can't picture Po just up and telling Katsa, and it was so cute, and so sad when she guessed :'( 
 I couldn't really understand why Katsa did not want children.... I understand the whole, I-don't-want-a-husband-to-hold-me-back attitude, but I was like, WHAT KIND OF A MONSTER DOESN'T LIKE BABIES????????? (Yes, as a matter of fact, I do want children when I grow up. One girl of my own, one boy, and another girl adopted from China, and another boy adopted from Africa. I have a PLAN.) 
 And so. 5 stars. Happy, happy day ;D
