Ratings and reviews

I'm sad that I won't get to see the gang continue their globetrotting adventures and grow anymore. I'm sad with the hands fate dealt most of these characters, and I'm sad that there isn't more to read. I am however, incredibly glad to have started and finished this series. I can safely say that I will never forget Yorick Brown's journey and am amazed sat the scope and planning put into the series. Tissues recommended.

This last part was so touching that I almost didn't want to finish it but I just couldn't stop reading...

Couldn't stop reading until I finished, and now I want to read it all again
