I agree. The book's resolution was both different and better than I had ever anticipated. I had expected to be disappointed by certain aspects of the outcome, but ultimately I wasn't. And that is some good writing.
I did cry like a baby when it was over. I'm reading a lot of people who weren't happy with it, or at least certain aspects, but I thought it was excellent. Not perfect, but very very good.
RJ, precisely. I was ready to be upset over a couple of things and, almost out of the blue, I wasn't. Damn fine storytelling.
Alexa, wasn't it? My mind is still spinning a bit, actually. And I may have read the last few pages several times...
Amy, *grin* soon! Stuck back at work again at the present moment. Grrr.
Makayla, you know I cried at the most unexpected moments. Took me by surprise. But, wow, the end. There were tears.
Alicia, I'm sure it will be. There's just no stopping past a certain point. And it's not that far in at all. :)
Britt, yeah. I recommend them. Incredible entertainment.
Enna, yup. I was so behind her. All the way.
Brenda, well, how could you not? It was stunning to see it all come to a conclusion like that. Are there really that many unhappy with it? That's too bad. There were a couple threads that I'm not sure went in the direction I think they would have or should have. But I have to say I ended it unbelievably pleased.
I'm re-reading it now. My brain kept jumping ahead and I don't feel that I was adequately able to stay in the moment for most of the book. But it was that way with the first two, too.
Oooh must be really good then! Can't wait to read it.
ReplyDeleteWasn't it incredible? I already want to read it again!
