It made me mad how she refused to see how great Christian was ESPECIALLY when her mother found such happiness in her destiny with her father after fighting it for so long. Still loved the book for some strange reason. Epilogue was a cop out though. Dark Wings were some of my favorite scenes and I just really liked Samjeeza. He was so complex and complicated. Loved it.

So irritating! I don't care which "team" someone is on - I think they'd still agree that _____ wasn't treated right. And, honestly, neither was the guy that was chosen.<br /><br />Yes to the confusion! The big one for me was the whole thing with the character being brought back and how he changed, as well as why the bad guy got that ending. UGH!<br /><br />Sometimes I think about Samjeeza and get sad that this series wasn't actually about him. HAHA!<br /><br />And I loved reading these with you :) So much fun!<br /><br />Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05058757489545239601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7453643548383938123.post-49078242006487546722013-03-07T14:44:15.500-05:002013-03-07T14:44:15.500-05:00Haha love that Betty gets distracted by the kissin...Haha love that Betty gets distracted by the kissing!

I think I'm the opposite - I don't want to see it end either, but I HAVE to know what happens. I really look forward to your thoughts when you do read it.

Some people still really enjoying the ending, but I do think it's good to know going into that the triangle is a little frustrating in Boundless :)Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05058757489545239601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7453643548383938123.post-636086560155206372013-03-07T14:40:46.590-05:002013-03-07T14:40:46.590-05:00Thanks!

THIS: I liked both guys enough that I hated the thought that one would be hurt in the end. --> THAT's what was toughest about this series for me, because ultimately when ___ got hurt, so did I. And then the flippant attitude of Clara towards how she chose, and then the guy that she didn't pick - how he would be affected forever - I just am still enraged about it. <br /><br />Then there are the things that just don't really fit into the story, which we have sort of discussed and I'm still confused about. <br /><br />BUT, I promise you, the rainbow and pretty birds and whipped-cream-with-a-cherry-on-top in this series was Samjeeza for me. He was so brilliantly written. His character was vibrant in all of his emotions, so easily visualized. I liked how he was handled in the end although I would have loved to *tweak* it just a little bit, but STILL. YAY for Sam. I'd love a book from his POV as well. <br /><br />Totally enjoyed reading these with you.

You think of things I never would-- probably because I'm too distracted by all the kissing. ;) Totally agree on Samjeeza-- since when is it that easy to like someone so bad?!

I'm worried about the love triangle because I've heard multiple people say they were frustrated with how it is handled in book #3. One of these days I'll suck it up and just finish :) Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09629683051183850547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7453643548383938123.post-78155898453514770152013-03-04T17:07:13.113-05:002013-03-04T17:07:13.113-05:00I really enjoyed Unearthly when I read it.

I'm curious to see what happens in the rest of the series, but I consider myself warned about the love triangle.Alexa S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13185723439360170259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7453643548383938123.post-78786575437056388232013-03-04T14:11:18.205-05:002013-03-04T14:11:18.205-05:00I'm very tempted to give these a try.

Yeah, I'd definitely recommend getting them from the library in case you feel the same in the end. I got the first on sale and then bought the other two because I loved Unearthly/Hallowed, so I was irritated that the final book so affected my feelings for the series as a whole.Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05058757489545239601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7453643548383938123.post-26673289337394810142013-03-04T12:53:00.386-05:002013-03-04T12:53:00.386-05:00Yeah, you should definitely give the series a try!...Yeah, you should definitely give the series a try!

I don't absolutely hate love triangles, if they are handled well, but I DO hate when the main character just jerks everyone around. How hard is it to make up your mind?! And if you can't, I don't know that you really deserve either boy haha!
