For the obvious reason of the title I wasn't really wanting to finish this book since I didn't want the series to end. But I needed to before my borrow time from the e-library was over (since I can't really afford the luxury of new books right away at the moment) and it was yanked from my e-reader and I have to say I was pleased. It ended the way you expected and wanted the series to and I am bittersweet about the end. Eventually I will have the entire set in physical form but this is a series that even knowing how it all ends I would read over and over again.

This is the first Weiner book I have read in a few years and it reminded me why I love her voice so much. I really dove into Allie's story and everything that was going on with her. Weiner did a good job of showing just how easy it is to slip into addiction and how quickly it can happen as well as the justification for everything. It was also very real in what would happen and how someone would do anything to get their addiction fulfilled. Plus the ending was believable even if it was a little abrupt and almost to the point of seeming rushed to tie everything up. I would recommend this for any women who may be going through what Allie is feeling like the weight of their world is on their shoulders and may be tempted to go down that rabbit hole of relying on pain killers, wine, or anything else to get them through the day.
