I reviewed this at MustReadBooksOrDie with my friend Shelley!Shel: Sweet sorrow. That's how I'd describe my thoughts here; I understood why things had to be the way they were and I loved the honesty and sorrow and sweetness of it all. I'm so glad it was true to the way life is--it's not always a happy ending; not always a save the day moment..life is messy and complicated and filled with longing and want. Even with all of that, though, Tiffany still left me smiling by the end. And I hope everyone takes a minute to read her note at the end and our world finds a way to be more open and accepting as the days, months, and years go by. Court: Right. I have to say that reading this, and my general consensus lately on pretty much anything...let people's (and our own) freak flag fly and enjoy life and have fun. That is what it is all about...and I loved that this idea is a major theme in this series. I loved this series very much, and it really went by way too fast. I loved Nora's snarkiness and fight to forge her own path, even if that meant giving up some things she had loved for over a decade. That takes some serious brass balls, and if anyone has them it is Nora. This is a serial, and it seems The Original Sinners as a whole, that is not to be missed.Shelley: 4 Stars for the seriesCourtney: 5 Stars for the series
