Bookish Excursions

I know I have said this before, but recently released finales to book series have either been major disappointments or wholly underwhelming this past year.  Evertrue fails miserably.  

I wasn't as attached to this series as some of the others I've been reading, but I still didn't expect this book to be so BORING.  Honestly, I stopped reading at page 222 and skimmed the ending because all of the characters annoyed the hell out of me.  The worst part of this whole book, besides the complete ruining of Cole's character, is that the only way Nikki and Jack are able to formulate a plan to battle the Everneath and its queen is to consult a mythology expert who has never been to the underworld and doesn't really believe in its existence.  Essentially, Nikki and Jack go on a suicide mission in which very convenient things happen to them at the precise moments they are in need of help.  All of the hard work is done for them, isn't that great!?!

Ugh.
