Well, I got the book yesterday. I pre-ordered from Amazon, who sent me a follow-up email saying that if I wanted to guarantee delivery on the Release Date I should upgrade my shipping method from Free Super Saver Shipping to something more expensive. I declined but I still got the book in the mail on the SAME day. 
Ten hours later (yes, I did sleep in the middle, but it was a total of ten) I finished the book. All 759 pages of it.
I won’t give anything away here. I’ll just say that I thought it was a pretty good book. Good story and decent ending. Not how I would have ended it, but still good (after all, I’m not the author, am I?). Yes, some people do die in this book and you do get to see some things that you’ve been waiting for. And I think there are some questions that don’t get answered by the end of the book, making the reader (me at least) wish she’d given a few more details in the final chapter.
Like any book, there were some slower points and some busier points, but the story moved along pretty well. And when you look at the series, from book one to book seven, it makes a good story with decent character development throughout. And, yet, I’m glad it’s over. Of course there’s still the potential for more books that are set before or after the seven years of this series, but at least this series is over now.
