Beautiful Conclusion

“Maybe there isn’t a meaning to life. Maybe there’s only a meaning to living.” Truth.

62.12 Beautiful Redemption
I wish the title of the post held true, but I just didn’t like this book as much as the others in the series. It didn’t feel as tightly written as the others, and one of the things that drew me to these books is how successful the team writing is, but parts here seemed mismanaged.  Some parts could have been taken out and I think maybe it needed to be longer to flush out the new characters; I hate to even say that though since it took four books to get here. The main issue is that it felt like more of the same instead of an extension of the story and I am not sure we got anywhere in the end.

This book focused on the main characters almost exclusively and over the course of the series the minor characters were much more impressive than the main and I missed them. The best parts of this book were the new characters as well, and they weren’t given enough attention.  I am glad that the series is over, since it really did start to wander no where, but I wish they had taken a bit more time to make this book a great ending instead of the weakest in the series.
