In the last book we caught glimpses of a not-so-nice Charley and I was afraid she was back, but no, she totally redeemed herself in this one! I enjoyed reading this book so much, it became my favourite of the series. There is this tiny bit of the story from Reyes POV that serves as a digestive, but I would have been happier if it had appeared in chronological order. As it was, it fell short because I thought it was about the last scene... I so wanted to know what he felt then!! This book has all the goodies: emotional moments that will get your eyes slightly wet, funny moments that will make you giggle like crazy (Cookie, oh Cookie!), and of course, the required action and mystery. It is like a perfect recipe with the exact amount of each ingredient.
