I was actually not excited about the ending. I think peoples comments about this big shocker ending ruined it for me. But I can't wait for the next book:)

I just can't believe Jennifer Armentrout ended it that way. She's pure EVIL! Haha.
But yeah I can't wait to see how things will unfold. The series has became my most favorite after reading Onyx.
I want to know what other things she has up her sleeve on this one.

Authors these days love cliffhangers! Extreme evil!

Yes I agree! ^^
I vote for no more cliffhangers but then again that will make the series boring. Haha.

Mine are:
1. Cassandra Clare

I think females tend to write more towards the emotions that we love. And the romance.

I think you're right, Sara. Personally, I love a fun fantasy book whether it be urban, PNR, adult, YA, or MG. Only recently I got into Contemporary and love it. But throw in the emotions and romance in the fantasy-world and it's sure to be a hit with me.
