I'm going to be honest here. (Not that I'm ever not honest...). The ending of this book trilogy surprised me in a good way. I cried to myself in a corner because I had finished yet another book series, then I bounced over to my vaguely annoyed sister and practically screamed that she had to read all 3 books RIGHT NOW while shoving the first book into her face in a not-so-calm manner. I regret nothing.
