review 1: This third installment starts out beautifully and it has some really poetic, touching elements but it fizzles out big time. It's a little frustrating because Valente is such a talented writer but she goes overboard and burdens her stories with too many frills and weirdnesses, with too much cleverness. This third volume (and ending?) doesn't have much plot, or if it did I lost it in a sea of details. I think she wrapped up the series with this installment, but the ending was not very satisfying.
review 2: Why does she do this? I get more teary eyed in one of Ms Valetne's "The Girl Who..." then any other book I've ever read. And it seems the more of the series she writes, the more I am inclined to get teary eyed! I don't know if I can emotionally make it through
... morethe entire series at this rate! The writing is great, the imagination absurdly delightful and the connection to the characters and what makes us who we are is sometimes a little frightening. less

She really lost me with the last book in the series. Not bad, but not as good as the first two.
