I loved this. Even when I hated it. Even when I cried so hard I couldn't see the words on the page. Because it made me smile through sheets of tears. It made me laugh right after it kicked me to the ground. because it's real and life is hard and sometimes things don't work out how you want them to, but the doesn't mean that the ending you get is a bad one. it just means that life is unpredictable and every cloud has a silver lining.

some people shine as bright as the sun. but what if the person you need more is stood behind them shining even brighter but don't even realise, blinded as you were. THAT'S THIS BOOK. and you know, the fictional people in it.

sorry for rambling. I will review when I'm not such a hot mess. I settled on five stars because I calmed down.

EDIT - what the hell get out of my brain. quit playing games with my heart.

I loved this so much! I can't really review what I NEED to talk about (seriously, email me if you read this) without major spoilage so all I will say is this---Behold the power of Cath Crowley: she pulls off things in this book that I didn't think were POSSIBLE. You will say "Nooooo! If she goes there, I will never forgive her! I will HATE IT!" and then she goes there and you give it 5 stars. So impressive. SO awesome.

My favorite of the series and perfect resolution to Gracie's misadventures.
