This is officially one of my favorite series', ever. The first two books were amazeballs, I felt everything while reading them and after the ending of Obsession, book 2, I was beyond giddy to read the third and final book in this fantastically original series. And I am happy to declare that Destined doesn't disappoint - it was AWESOME! Everything, and I mean everything, comes full circle in such a wonderful way. I really loved it, I cried, I laughed, and by the last page I was filled with bittersweet feels, mostly because I am sad to see the series end.Liz deals with the fallout of her decisions in the previous book. She is basically a recovering addict learning to trust herself again. I love that Liz comes full circle in this book, she's experienced her first love and her first heartbreak, all in the form of Dylan. She's been betrayed, lied to and kept in the dark about her true heritage. She's found answers to the secrets of her past and given herself over to immense evil, only to be pulled back from the edge. Then she found Sean, the most perfect book boy - ever, well, he's perfect for Liz. Basically Liz has been through a whole crap load of crazy and she's come out stronger.I love this series and this book. Holy moly! This book. I am so sad that it's over and honestly I was so thrown into a book funk that I have had the hardest time even writing a review for this wonderfully awesome last outing with Liz and her crazy friends and family.I love these characters, so much. Liz is so freaking awesome, sarcastically hilarious and painfully honest with her struggles and I adore her relationships. Her relationship with her Grandma is awesome, it was great that after 18 years of no family, she finally found it with her Grams. Then you've got Liz's relationship with Sean, which. . . wow. I was squeeing and grinning like a crazy person during every single one of their interactions. I love, love, love them together. Her friendship with Samantha is beyond cool, complete awesomeness. And surprisingly even her stilted, frayed and tattered relationship with Dylan really comes to a good place.By the time I reached the epilogue - which is one of the most perfect epilogues for a series that I've ever read - I was ugly crying and smiling like a crazy person, suffice it to say I'm just glad I didn't read this book in public.I really honestly can't recommend this series as a whole enough. It's truly one of my favorites, I love everything that Megan White did. I cried, I laughed, I sighed with absolute happiness as my bookish heart exploded with all the feels. This is definitely a series that I will be going back to re-read, they have a permeant place on my shelf. If you haven't read Megan White's books yet, you are missing out, I for one am a reader of hers for life.Complimentary copy provided by the Author for an honest review.Originally posted on Me, Myself & Books
