The will-they-won't-they finally willed and it was just about everything I could have hoped for. The only major detractor was a plot twist that was more confusing instead of feeling like things clicking into place, but maybe if I had reread the first book it wouldn't feel that way. Very much looking forward to the 3rd book.
