I'm a little bit in love with this series. I was reading this one during my lunch hour, a piece at a time, but once I got nearer to the end I couldn't stand it anymore. I lugged that giant hardcover on the long train ride home with me and almost missed my stop because I wasn't paying attention. 
 Everything is intense; I have to pay attention to every little word because 1) it's obviously important, and 2) it's so vivid and beautiful. I love this world and the people in it. 
 Well, the lovely-dovely stuff is cheesy. But that stuff is always cheesy, especially in teen lit (which I often forget this is, technically, YA). Sorry, you just can't get away from that. 
 I don't see how the story can continue onto a fourth novel, but hey. Here's me not complaining.
