This book was just absolutely awful and I wish I'd never read it. The book began by overlapping the previous book. Then there were only a few happy times in the entire book. It is just one bad thing, loss and devastation after another. It even ended on a sad note as well. Not only that, but the narrator's voice was sad too. This was the last book in the series and it was an awful end to such a great series. The story didn't even wrap up everyone's lives. There was nothing that said what happened to everyone after the series ended. It would've been nice to read one more book to show a happy ending versus the sad one for Laura. As well as, what became of Mary and the others.
