** spoiler alert ** Sighhhhhh. This book was filled with conveniences so it could make it to what's supposed to be a satisfying end. Was I satisfied? Yes, but mostly because I had managed to get through the final book of this series, which started taking a serious nosedive about two books ago. It starts of interestingly enough when Camelia finds out her aunt is really her birth mother but Camelia quickly morphs into the most whiny, selfish and irresponsible character I've read in a while. She treats her parents and Adam like shit, runs away to Rhode Island for a summer program (which is partially motivated by mystery of the book, a missing girl from there who Camelia feels connected to) and is a complete mess basically the entire time she's there. I'm not even kidding. She is always either ditching her classes or majorly pissing people off when she goes to them. I cannot even begin to explain how frustrating this was to read. Nearly every time she was late or missed her class, she probably could have been there on time. She was usually fully aware of what time it was and just didn't go. If she hadn't sought out this program and used Spencer's connections to get her in, it probably wouldn't have bothered me as much. But it did. One of the most upsetting, and in my opinion, grossest things that happened in this novel was the mischaracterization of Adam. Adam has always been sweet, caring, attentive, concerned for Camelia and all in all a really fucking awesome guy. However, he was wasted on Camelia. I knew it from the very beginning. This is not one of those love triangle series where you don't know who the girl's gonna end up with. We always knew who it would be. Adam never stood a damned chance and very quickly during this book did I decide that I was fine with this because Adam 100% deserved better than shitty Camelia. Here's the thing that really pissed me off, though. To avoid innocent ol' saint Camelia having to do anything to hurt Adam's feelings, Stolarz spends any and all time on Adam making him very insensitive toward Camelia's apparent depression. ....EXCUSE ME? This is not Adam. This is not how Adam deals with Camelia's issues. "Why can't you deal with the news and move on? Why are you letting it dictate your life?" Adam painstakingly repeats this sort of thing nearly every time he speaks to Camelia in this book. While what he says makes complete sense, having him constantly barrage Camelia with this sort of advice without ever trying to hear her out just makes him seem like a huge dick, and I saw it for what it was: a cheap, quick way to eliminate Adam in the cleanest way possible. And it was disgustingly clean. Adam shows up at the college and basically says it's not working out because she can't just be happy and they part ways amicably. Are you fucking kidding me? All hail Saint Camelia, she who can lust after her ex-boyfriend, treat her actual boyfriend like shit and then get to say adios with no blood on her hands so she can skip back to her dorm room and snuggle up to Ben who, who'd have guessed it?! was conveniently there. And if that isn't just a huge steaming pile of bullshit, immediately after her breakup, she and Ben have sex. It's basically like this: (dramatic whisper) He was never who I wanted. (disbelieving idiocy) Really???? [Says they love each other for the first time in five books and start stripping] (Logically) Wait, you and Adam just broke up. I don't want to be the rebound. (Idiotically) It's okay. (Equally idiotically). Okay Commence the sex. I just...I can't. Everything with Ben and Camelia in this book was just so cheesy and I love cheesy. I did not love this. And Camelia miraculously gets less bitchy as soon as she gets Ben's dick, which I guess is not surprising at all, but really frustrating because I'm all for love helping people out but I'm not so for it being the only freaking thing that stops someone from being a complete idiot. The whole plot about the missing girl was actually very good. It is probably the second best of the mystery storylines in the series, following that of the very first book. I can sincerely say I was pleased with all of that. So...at least there's that. Kimmie and Wes are superb. They are some of the best friend characters I've read and I adore them. I wish I could just read about them, honestly. Stolarz, please write a spin off that has nothing to do with Camelia and everything to do with Wes going to college in Rhode Island and Kimmie living it up in New York and the two of them constantly meeting up and partying and loving life. Please. PLEASE. Also, since I already established that I 100% didn't think Camelia deserved Adam, I was alright when it was revealed that Kimmie had a thing for him. But once again, how convenient. I considered giving this book 4 stars because I liked the mystery plot even though Camelia drove me nuts the entire book, and overall it was decently written. But a 3 star it is, because it's the final book and I was overall, pretty disappointed. There was really no growth from Camelia. It was always woe is me and everything is awful unless I have Ben (and most of the time when I have him, too). Plus, there's this lovely gem from Alexia in the last couple pages. "[...]Don't let anyone ever take your baby. Now, throughout the book it is made clear that Alexia doesn't appear to remember that she is Camelia's mother so this could be interpreted as her starting to acknowledge it, as can the painting of her (faceless) holding Camelia as a baby. But honestly, this just 100% seemed like an implication that Camelia is pregnant and I cannot tolerate this. Mix this with the sickly sweet Twilight-esque 'we have always' ending of the book for her and Ben, and the fact that we apparently never get to know anything about Camelia's birth father and I'm pretty set on keeping this at a 3 star. I can't believe how such a promising series completely deteriorated. Au revoir.
