    What a beautiful ending to one of the most mesmerizing trilogies. Even though it was so sad! In this book Gemma's problems really multiply and she has trouble trying to distinguish what is real and what is only her imagination. The tension is certainly high!

    Ann finally finds her way. Congratulations lil' Annie.
    Pip was a traitor, but I knew it... I'm sorry for Fee who really loved her.

    In the end it's a wonderful trilogy.
    Thrilling, suspensefull and full of passion and love: 'cause in this books Love is the real principal character.

    Effectly "The Sweet Far Thing" is quite too much slow in the first three acts, but after it improves very much.

    Vote: 9/10
