It's been in the works forever. I kept all my notes from book two so I was able to jump into this one fairly easily. It felt a little overly dramatic in parts, but that's par for the course. I enjoyed the romance between the couples and it did get a little spicy at the end. Nothing crazy though IMO. Rose and Wren are cute sisters and I liked the premise of the three books as they learned to love each other and create a bond that was missing in their childhood.

I'll definitely finish this series, I've been enjoying it so much. But I have a few books in the queue to do first. Always the queue....more

It is crazy what the body is capable of. I liked all the history behind different people who discovered things and helped implement procedures and create medicine. The little personal histories may have been my favorite.
Of course the book follows a nice flow through the body and ends with death, and it was kinda sad to end that way. It made me feel very mortal and worry about how I will eventually go. I don't have much choice in the matter but I now have a list of ways I'd rather NOT exit mortality.
I know I don't really reread or relisten to things, but I'd put this on my list of rereads any day. It is crammed with interesting facts and since I know my brain won't hold many, I'd love to revisit it again in the future. ...more
