Honestly, a perfect ending to this series. It tied a lot of loose ends together and made them complete.

Very satisfying end to Jessica's novels, the author gives the readers what everyone's been wanting all along without putting it on a silver platter.

I was more than a bit disappointed by this last installment. I loved that time had passed since Jessica and Marcus had last seen each other, but it bothered me that he seemed OK with out her, (though still in love, and she seemed to be falling apart without him. There was also a lot of filler in the book. I really didn’t need her crazy dream sequences to go for more than one page, or their haikus back and forth which were hard to follow.
I liked the sections that were pure dialogue, but I wanted more to happen in this book. I wanted them to get to a different place together and then have to deal with that. Just staying at the airport seemed too safe. I as always enjoyed reading their uber-intellectual dialogue, but I felt like the ending was too easy, too perfect, and maybe they have changed too much to be together again.

Wow. Ok. This book is fantastic. Before I started reading, I checked some reviews to see what to expect. Most people said the book read like fanfic, the series has done nothing but go downhill, the book should not have been written at all, etc.

I thoroughly disagree. I couldn’t put this down, but when I had to as sleep called for me, I had nonstop dreams about it.

The inevitable happened, in true Jessica and Marcus fashion. I only had a couple complaints, like Lorna wasn't the ex that made the toilet seat, it was Sierra, and that haiku section was kind of annoying, and I realize this was about getting Marcus and Jessica back together but I would have liked more about Bridget and Percy's wedding.

I was really pleased with the way that this series ended. I was worried that she would just end it with number 4 and them not having any resolution. Loved the concept of the title. That even though they can't sing worth a damn together they make perfect harmony! Yay Megan McCafferty!
