Kiethen and Ava aren't my favorite but that might have been because I was expecting Kiethen to end up with Catriona.  My heart broke for Ava, and I'm a bit disappointed that people like Esme weren't more supportive of her when they know the truth.  I was a bit disappointed also that one of the plot lines remained unfinished.  I was also really annoyed that everyone acted as if Esme didn't just make the same exact mistake in the book right before!  Like come on!  Content warning for miscarriage.
