I have enjoyed the whole series but it wrapped up so beautifully. I muttered "wow" and teared up as I got to the last chapter. What an incredible series. ( )

This had a satisfying ending, even if parts of it were sad and strange. Also, Bobby is definitely my favorite character in the whole series. ( )

Well, there it is, the end to a fantastic series.

I loved this volume. I won't talk much about the plot because I really don't want to spoil it.

My only criticism would be that some of the villains in this volume are a little too conveniently evil? And the novel itself really didn't end in the way that I expected it to but I loved seeing Gus' growth as a character and the art is beautiful, moody and the water colours are so vivid -- the washes are gorgeous.

It astonishes me that Lemire wrote and drew the artwork for the novel, that in and of itself, whether you like the books or not, is an impressive feat and deserves respect.

Thank you, Lemire, for all you've done. I'll miss this series a lot. ( )

This wasn't a perfect series. It was preachy as hell, the same plot pints were reused over and over again, and the entire explanation for the sickness and hybrids was as awful the second time around as the first. But this series made me care about the characters, and it made me cry, so Lemire must have been doing something right. ( )

JEFF LEMIRE, YOU GENIUS. This was an absolutely kick-ass ending to a kick-ass series. One of the better series conclusions I have read. If you haven't picked up Sweet Tooth yet, do yourself a favor and read it. The characters and plot are incredibly well developed and even if they weren't I would have read it for the art alone. I also kind of love that it is only six volumes, sometimes longer series are too intimidating to start and this didn't frag but concluded right when it should have. New fave, without a doubt. ( )
