Review: The end is finally nigh for Ethan/Drew/Oryon/Kim/? (I'm not going to give away anything about his/her final identity). S/he has one more year to go before s/he can choose his/her final identity. Who will s/he be this time? What choice will s/he ultimately make? These are the questions that made me want to read the last book in this series, and kept me reading until the end of the book. I have to admit, though, that it was sort of tough going. First of all, the plot holes are back and better than ever! Secondly, slang vomited all over this book. It definitely helped the character have a voice, but it got grating.
And then. Oh, and then. For the first quarter or so of the book, we're still with Kim as she wraps up her affairs, particularly with Audrey, with whom she swears undying love and devotion, no matter what the next identity is. Until it's time for said identity when s/he totally bails. Good reason? Maybe. But not big enough to close the plot hole. And made most of the second half of the book aggravating.
But, it's all over now. Ethan/Drew/Oryon/Kim/? has made his/her decision and started the rest of his/her life. And I will say that the ending was quite lovely.
