MELODRAMATIC! SAPPY! MELODRAMATIC AGAIN!!! OMG, SUPER SAPPY!!!

Seriously people, I can’t decide what this book has more of: gut-wrenching, end-of-the-world, oh my god melodramatic scenes or syrupy-sweet, stifle-an-eye roll/giggle sappy scenes. It is intensely both of these things. Sometimes even simultaneously! Not that melodrama and sap are necessarily bad things… just be warned.

I think it is pretty obvious from these reviews that there is not much middle ground on this book. You are either going to become addicted or allergic to its digital pages fairly quickly. I’m an addict, yay! (My mother is so proud.) Now, I must admit there are many glaring flaws about this book. But somehow, instead of finding them annoying and distracting, I found them endearing. I think it has to do with the characters; the main character Grace in particular. The characters of a book are perhaps the most important part for me. If the characters limp off of the page with as much personality as a potato, I’m out. I really don’t even care how good the plot is at that point. I want to read about people, not potatoes. I could tell Grace was a wonderful character from the first page. She is overflowing with personality, she is offbeat and quirky – clearly not your average heroine these days.

Now for the negative: I can see the possibility of abandoning this series. Perhaps the “new” will wear off somewhere in the middle of book 2. The book definitely has problems. Right now it is hanging on to such a high rating mainly by charm. This book reminds me of a great local band with quirky, endearing lyrics but the music is just not that tight yet. Forgivable for a while, but if we don’t see some improvement soon the apathy will set in.

What an ending to this series! I truly thought that Grace had died for real, and that it ended up being all for nothing. The fight was amazing, and when Grace finally got into all of her powers, it was breathtaking! She is Life, so wonderful, and now, she and Robert can live on, raising their angel-baby and continue answering their call.
The only sad note at the very end of the book is that Grace's dad and family moved away, it makes me want to know more, just like I always do when I love a series. I want to see Grace and Robert again later, know that life is better now. And hopefully, they have stopped thinking they don't deserve each other's love now.… (mehr)

Oh my gosh, this book was excellent as well, so beautiful, so full of love, hope, betrayel, forgiveness, and I am almost breathless having finished reading this.
