Now that I've read it, I can understand why some people didn't like it. I, however, loved it. It had such a powerful message and leaves you to be able to play out the after on your own. But I feel like it's all also obvious how things worked out.
I love Lena. I loved seeing her grow through out the series. She grow so much from the first book to the last that I felt like I was reading about a different character. She became so strong and learned so much about herself. She was so dependent on the world telling her who she was that she was too scared to question things and figure it out on her own. In the end, however, she did.
I'm so glad she ended up with Alex. While I loved Julian, I just feel he wasn't for her. I feel like her relationship with Julian was important for her to figure out more about herself and what she believed. But Alex and her have such a great relationship. For most of the book he was kind of a jerk, but it was understandable. He helped Lena get out, and he was busted for it. Thrown in the Crypts and treated badly. Then when he finally gets out and finds the girl he loves, the one thing that kept him going, he sees her with someone else. However, after he realizes that she does love him and that he doesn't want to lose her, the old Alex is back.
I loved the ending the ending, but I'm so sad it's over. I will miss all the characters so much.
