fun read, but not as good as the others in the series, which is kind of surprising, considering how long it took for this one to come out. You'd think she would have had a lot more time to work on it. It was alright, but a ridiculous number of flashbacks and repetitions of a "song" that is important in the book, but it's not necessary to repeat it in its entirety 10 times or more. Seriously. And, she could have taken the book a little bit further, but I understand why she didn't. All in all, I enjoyed the series and I'm glad I read it. If you're into the series, you'll always wonder about it, so just read it already, but borrow it from someone or go to the library and get it.
