★☆☆☆☆
Poor ending to an otherwise enjoyable series.
As a stand alone book, this would've made fine fan-fic on a message board somewhere. As an ending to an otherwise amazing series, it's horrible. This book does not follow in the same thread or tone of the other books, and most things that the reader is lead to believe as fact the author chose to change to fit into her so called story line. Total 180 from the other books. I can't help but wonder if she was forced to write an ongoing series, and struggled to come up with ideas? What started as an amazing series has crashed and burned. She has much talent as a storyteller, but I think she writes much better with only one book - Twilight and The Host are very enjoyable reads. If she has to continue her stories into a series, she seems to struggle.
Stephenie Meyer definately jumped the shark on this one.
