From the Back of the Book ~
I'd had nightmares about him before. Before I knew him, or at least knew he was going to be Ethan. But this wasn't like anything I'd ever seen in any nightmare.
It was real.
Ethan Wate has spent most of his life longing to escape the stiflingly small Southern town of Gatlin. He never thought he would meet the girl of his dreams, Lena Duchannes, who unveiled a secretive, powerful, and cursed side of Gatlin, hidden in plain sight. And he never could have expected that he would be forced to leave behind everyone and everything he cares about. So when Ethan awakes after the chilling events of the Eighteenth Moon, he has only one goal: to find a way to return to Lena and the ones he loves.
Back in Gatlin, Lena is making her own bargains for Ethan's return, vowing to do whatever it takes - even if that means trusting old enemies or risking the lives of the family and friends Ethan left to protest.
Worlds apart, Ethan and Lena must once again work together to rewrite their fate, in this stunning finale to the Beautiful Creatures series.
Let me just start by saying, I loved the first book in this series and could not wait to read the other two books. However, by the end of the third book I was completely ready to be out of Lena and Ethan's head. This fourth book was just a chance for resolution to me. And I feel it did just that.
Of course, in the end of the third book, we all felt that when Ethan jumped off the water tower, things just didn't feel right. Obviously, it couldn't end like that. The fourth book takes us through the Otherworld and back again. It leaves you feeling complete. I was, however, disappointed because I just didn't feel as involved in the final books. I wasn't giddy with joy for Lena and Ethan by the end. I like a book that leaves me happy or shocked. And this book just didn't.
