The end of a very special series. These characters have pathed a way into my heart. But the end happened very quickly and abrupt. However it was funny and heartwarming <3

“I was yours once 'till death if you'd cared to keep me, but I'm someone else's now - I can't hang about whining forever - and he's mine in a way that shocks you, but why don't you stop being shocked, and attend to your own happiness?”

Even better than the first book. These characters are so real and relatable and the wringing style is poetic and philosophical! Super fast paced and I would recommended it to you if you seek an emotional and soul gripping book that leaves you speechless.
