I will admit that I started this series hot expecting much: a rehash of Twilight - teen angst romance wrapped in shiny black pleather. And the first two did only little to contradict my suspicions. However, it improved almost exponentially with each book.
It's rare that I am pleased with the wrap-up when a series comes to an end, but this was near perfect. I say near because it's never fun to say goodbye to characters (mainly the side characters) that you've grown to care for, yet this one is a nice blend of bittersweet. It wasn't a fairytale ending with losses, sacrifices, and pieces left unresolved, an appreciative tip to real life and a promise of what's to come in the next series.
