So this is the last book in Kelley Armstrong's Darkest Powers trilogy. personally I think that it's a shame that there isn't going to be anymore in this series because as far as typical teen fic goes this series was excellent. They might have been some of the easiest books I've read and enjoyed (Twilight was easy to read. Far to easy (the language wasn't complicated) but it made me want to kill things and gets a rating of negative ten epic battles out of ten. If you've read Breaking Dawn you know what I refer to in epic battles (or in this case lack there of) SO disappointing).
****SPOILERS****
Anyways, I really enjoyed this book. The relationship between Chloe and Simon gets completely obliterated when Simon tries to kiss and she doesn't react the way he thinks she will. Things get messy people get hurt and in the end Chloe and Derek get together (which in my opinion is the better match). Unfortunately without all that relationship stuff the book wasn't really that great. It was pretty typical damsel in distress who end up saving the day sorta stuff and the ending was rather abrupt. I don't like the fact that this is only a trilogy because there is so much that can be done with the ending. They're on the run again and that's it
For the sheer lack of ending and overall disappointment the plot line offered I give this book a five necklaces out of ten. If you read the other books this one will not disappoint but I wouldn't read the series for this book. The second one was much better.
