So I went back and forth on whether to give 3 or 4 stars... Even though I was happy about how the story ended I still gave it 3 because of the horrible marriage Jane ties herself to. Basically most of the end of the book kept my attention, flowed well and was pretty fast paced. There was just something about most of the beginning that kept making me put the book down and wonder if I was even interested in finishing it.

My problem has to do with the relationship between Jane and Carey, supposedly she loves him so much she marries him and is willing to give up helping people disappear, but I never really saw a lot to love about him. I know way more about Pete, the guy she leads to safety, than has ever been revealed about the man she chooses to change her life for. And maybe that's what my problem with the book is - that she's "giving up" who she seems to be - she's planning on being the "perfect wife" and it just seems like Carey would rather that be who he's married to than who she actually is. It just doesn't seem like he's worthy of the awesome woman she actually is, he prefers the glossy surface he's always known. Is it wrong to hope the 4th book starts off with him being killed and Jane wreaking vengeance for him? Either give me that or have the guy become a man worth loving!
