It was a moment that I'd been waiting for throughout the series and it has completely affected the series going forward from that point. ... Has to be my favorite of the series, I think.

I got it from the library and it ended up being a fantastic five-star read for me. This book is not getting enough attention.

It is one of those books that is so comforting, and reminds you of the feeling that anytime someone leaves, they're not really gone. ... So, a really powerful read. Highly recommend it.

This prose is biting and it's lean and it's muscular and it's funny. ... I would recommend anybody stick with it and try to see what she's saying by making the prose this way and making the point of view like this.
