Closure. Closure is good.
Especially when it's all wrapped up and tied in a neat little bow. (thanks SM, you definitely meant it when you said, 'big bow' in Amazon.com).

I definitely like the format of this book. It was a refreshing change... and I'll stop this sentence for now since going on will spoil things.

I've had concerns for some areas though, mainly since I saw a sample of the breadth of readership at a BD release party on Friday. I had to remind myself that it's a book listed as YA...

I ended up buying the book mid-day on Saturday, in another state of all places. We had to really quickly go to the bay area on Saturday (last minute decision done at like 10pm the night before). I'm sooo glad I didn't stay up for the release party or I wouldn't have gotten any sleep at all since we had to fly out at 6am the next morning.

I tried to read bits and pieces on the way back home. I finally got into the groove of things at around 11pm last night. Nick even asked if I was going to have the discipline to go to bed before it got too late. Yeah, apparently, I didn't.

By midnight I was halfway through the book, but I couldn't stop there. I promised myself, one more hour. Yeah, it was about 2:45am when I finally closed the book. But I finished it...

I'm torn right now if I really like it or not... ugh.

But...

Closure... Closure is good.

HI MAYEE!!
hahah. parang gnun nga ung pakiramdam ng mga tao. but we feel that guilt of 'we have to support the series' despite all the weirdness that was thrown at us this time around. hay. I really wanted to love it, but I don't. I finally went from meh to really liking it after a while, kasi talagang kinompleto nya ung storya, but then again, parang kulang pa rin. :) gulo ba? :D
