And we have the finale. It was alright, I guess, although the world still doesn't really make sense to me. There seem so few ymbryns (sp?) and they all seem so concentrated in England that it just feels off. The books also try so hard to be child-centric or at least teenager-centric so that there are all these really old "children" and it just doesn't really make sense unless you buy into the whole "ymbryns are controlling everyone" thing. Why infantilize them unless you really just want to control them?
And that romance is still weird.
