Afterlife begins with Lucas living (or unliving...?) as the creature he hates the most. Most of the book revolves more around his struggle to accept what he's become rather than Bianca learning more about being a wraith. There're several shocking twists and a lot of great character development. The ending was a little I don't know. Bittersweet but somehow too happy at the same time. After a bit of thought, though, I decided that somehow such a conclusion manages to perfectly sum up the Evernight series, although I still feel like there're too many loose ends.
