Kiki and Ana are wonderful (even though their character just blend together sometimes), and they act and feel like real teens. That they are based on real women makes them all the better, and I would have loved more about them in the back matter. The depictions of different ways to express grief are also excellent.
I do wish there was a little more to the end. I would have loved to have seen some of the scenes that were summarized as they actually happened. The last two chapters were easily my least favorite in the books just because they felt pretty limp.
