I was disappointed, Christopher Pike. -_-

First of all, I've got a lot of expectations for the end of this series. I expected everything to be solved, to be finished, everyone to be happy and fucking satisfied.

They probably did, the characters, I mean. But I obviously wasn't.

Why?
WHY?!

One - I hate the fact that SHARI COOPER succumbed to temptation (almost, really), just because Peter can't have sex.

Two - I hate the fact that SHARI COOPER took hold of Jean Rodrigues' life completely. I mean, I get it. She came back from the dead in a different body, but what the hell, Jean Rodrigues is still living inside of her. It was as if she forget where Jean really came from, her mother, even her best friend and what happened about her dream of making every Hispanics proud? Of restoring her community? She changed her name to Shari Cooper, she was known as Shari Cooper. That is obviously not Hispanic.

I can't believe Shari can be that selfish. Did she not learn anything when she died?

Three - I hate the fact that there were actually non-existent moments of her and Peter. Okay, there were some, but that was after Shari succumbed to temptation and realized that Peter is her actual and only one true love forever ever till death part them .

Four - I think it's better if Pike added a few scenes of Jimmy and Jean. I mean, they were very close. What happened to best sister anyone could ever have?

Five - Daniel? Bethy? Amanda? What happened to them? Give me closure, please. It was as if they didn't exist in book one.

Six - I HATE ROGER. HATE HIM HATE HIM HATE HIM. I know it's a given that everyone should hate him considering he's the antagonist, I just wanted to write that. I'm still fuming.

Seven - WHY DID GARRETT DIE?! Why did you let him die?! One moment he was there, the next thing he's gone, head splattered into the concrete floor, my goodness. I feel bad for her daughter. What would happen to her now, huh?! Go back to drugs?

I sometimes think this book was made in a rush. This was only made so that the series could be called a trilogy. It did not give me any answers whatsoever. It only made me more confused. I NEED A BETTER ENDING!!!!!!!!!!!!!
