Hm...well, in general, the ending was definitely a sutiable one. I enjoyed it, especially when "Wanda" meets the other alien-thing.
Forgive me, I haven't read it in a while, and I lent it to my friend at LEAST two weeks ago. She's a slow reader.
Anyways, I shall carry on using the questions:
Did you see this ending coming or were you expecting something else?
Psh. Where ever my mind was, it was EONS away from that ending. Like, I was thinking everyone died, and the sky would turn pink.
OK, not really, but I was CERTAINLY not thinking that. But as soon as I read that ending, all those loose ends clicked- the light bulb finally turned on.
And how do you feel about Wanda in a new body? How does it change the way you think Ian and Wanda will work as a couple? How about Jared and Mel? Or the rest of the people, for that matter, working with an alien?
Wanda in a 12 year old body...well, hey! I've heard weirder!
But really, I'm fine with it. And Ian said he would wait for her- and love her no matter how old she was (a very Edwardian thing to say)- so him being with her despite that problem shows how much he cares for her. But how they would
show that love irks me just a tad. All I have to say is, don't do anything I wouldn't do!
And plus, in all honesty, I had
no idea that the pair would end up together- I kept thinking that they
loathed each other! When they turned around and were like, "Hey, by they way, I really like you.", it completely threw me off! But now that I think about it, it makes sense. To each there own!
Jared and Mel were already meant to be. Mel being in her original body- with just one person inside it, mind you- really helps that whole situation that carried throughout the novel. As for working with an alien, well, I would say that they think along the lines of, "If it benefits me, then I'm ok with it." And if anyone had anything to say about it, then they would have to answer to Ian, and I'm sure that no one would want that.
