The last book improved. I'm glad to have finished the series and I have to admit that the book's last third was more exciting and intriguing than the previous two books and two-thirds combined. Nonetheless, it's far from being a great read. Petra matured a little towards the end, which is also proof that the author was looking to conclude their story. Having all those mishaps happening one after the other, I wonder whether the author couldn't come up with better twists. I was half expecting a twist relating to her mother because up to this book, we don't know what really happened. Also, the godparents. I expected one but come on! The marriage almost led to divorce because of a person, and then you patch things up to the point of appointing the person godparent? All throughout the books, the main characters were portrayed as stubborn and difficult to let go of a grudge. Petra even agrees to "betray" her husband and then the final third of the book just throws all the buildup into the trash for the sake of a "happy ending". I wouldn't be reading more of the series, and I do not recommend it.
