What can I say...these last three books were meh.  I've kept coming back mostly for the humorous snark of Skyla, certainly not bc she's very bright(which frustrates me a bit) and the "family time" hilarity, which there wasn't enough of in this book. The dragging out of the relationships and scenes with the overuse of analogies regarding the sky, his eyes, his looks, and everything else she observed-frequently-blah,blah. Seriously, page wasters after the first part, and there were plenty in the first part let alone the second. The rest of story, aside from the dragging out of Skyla's indecision over her relationship quandaries, was also disjointed from the war, and all the "bad" things that were going on or hanging in the balance most of the time. Glad this series is over. I don't think I'm interested in Skyla's college years of wrong assumptions, and her forlorn love affairs with the Oliver boys.  When she gets with Marshal, then I'll take another look at this series. The last book presumably. In the end that's where the humor, good sex and happy ending for this girl is.
