Did you see the sudden death coming? What did you think about it?
Re: OD: The End
I don't know that I saw exactly that coming, but I knew something was going to happen to interfere. They just seemed so doomed from the start.
Also, I thought it kind of ruined the book that it continued. if the whole point is what each of them are doing on that specific day, it makes no sense to continue without one of them. I'm probably the only one that thought that.
I effing hated the end. I had enjoyed the storytelling in the book up until that point. But the death was just so...pointless. And it made it so much worse that it just kept going after that, and the way that it kept going. Two years later, it's hardly like she existed. Dexter's moved on and his daughter doesn't even remember her. How completely depressing.
The ending made me dislike the book.

I feel like her death was made ridiculously obvious before it happened. I knew it was coming. And this may be odd, but I'm a bit upset that we spend all of this time getting to know Emma only to have a paragraph sum up her ending. I really wanted a bit more detail. Something, anything.
I also felt a bit betrayed by the fact that Dex moved on to the coffee shop girl. It pissed me off.
