Once again, Hart outdoes himself. This book was the culmination of everything great from the first two books in the trilogy, and it was also something else that blew them both out of the water. It was touching, heartbreaking, overwhelming, bittersweet, and wonderful all at the same time. Every page was a rollercoaster, and every twist and turn had you starving for another morsel of information. Zoey's story is something I will always treasure and I am so glad I read this book.
