A heart warming and feel good ending to a superb trilogy.
So Did I Mention I Miss You? again takes off a year where the previous book, Did I Mention I Need You?, took off. I wasn't quite sure how crazy I was on the year gap between books personally at the beginning but getting into DIMIMY I kinda get why Estelle did it. And it works. It really does. After Tyler left at the end of DIMINY I honestly wasn't sure what the hell was going to happen with him and Eden, I'd kinda let my ship sink and be happy with that. But no, Estelle wouldn't let us down like that!I thought the year gap between the books was great, because that's where the story lies. In the between of what happened to each other, how they developed, and how they became more important to us. Distance makes the heart grow fonder and all, even if you don't know where you're heart ran off too! Eden was completely broken after DIMINY we know this, and what happens to a girl when you let her stew over an argument for a year? She moves on. She heals. She finds a distraction. Oh, Tyler.Everyone said DIMINY was their favorite book of the series, and I have to be the odd one out here and say that DIMIMY by far was my utmost favorite of the entire series. Mainly because it was SUCH a good ending. Eden was not a weak character, but she definitely needed a bit of a kick up the butt in books 1&2 and boy did she find her umph, she was such a better character in DIMIMY. She stood up for herself, and she did what she wanted to do for her and I loved reading here all the way through. Tyler really read as a better character in DIMIMY, I mean he was a good character that was versatile and complicated in books one and two but in the third I think he really became a character to love and to relate too. Tyler has developed massively over all three books and I think Estelle did a magnificent job in transforming him for the douche bag he was to a likable boyfriend worthy kinda guy.Did I Mention I Miss You? was the book I was most skeptical about going into, not because I didn't want to but because I'd binged the series it's always hard to go into the final book knowing there are no more afterwards, and with DIMINY being as good as it was it had a lot to live up to. But it was one of the best finales I have ever read to a series, it had the expected chaos from a DIMILY novel, it had the love and romance, it had the arguments, it had all the ingredients for a dysfunctional family, but in the end it wrapped up SO nicely guys! Everything just seemed to come together, and it wasn't one of those finales where everything happened right u[p to the end then suddenly Happily Ever After it happened slowly, and gradually throughout the novel you could see it happening.I'd recommend the Did I Mention I Love You? trilogy to anyone who loves a romance, a YA contemporary or a book that just perfectly feel-good. DIMILY makes you feel at home with a novel, like you can sink into a chair, and loose a rainy day immersed in Santa Monica, LA, New York, Portland! Did I Mention I Miss You? is a spectacularly heart warming ending to a beautifully written and concise trilogy. I can't wait for more from Estelle Maskame.

Great writing
I really enjoyed this series, I must have felt every emotion throughout reading them, to the point I got annoyed when something else happened that I almost stopped reading lol.

A Superb Series - Highly Recommended
The book I just read doesn't match the description on Goodreads and I note there is a new publication date so I'm guessing the version that's releasing in December is an updated version? I'll definitely check it out to see what changes were made.I did enjoy reading the final book in the series even if he did have a slightly different vibe to the first two books.Tyler's character development in this series is absolutely superb and I say bravo to Estelle for the expert way she crafted and nurtured his character. I've gone from despising him in book one to totally loving him in book three. Tyler is awesome and such a motivational character in how he has turned his life around.Eden has grown up in this instalment too. Her reactions toward Tyler at the start of the book were bang-on. I was cheering her on because I felt her pain and her anger and she was totally justified in feeling that way, but I loved how she afforded him the opportunity to explain, and it was an explanation worth waiting for.The rest of the book shows them developing more of a normal relationship and it was really sweet and so good to see these characters getting their HEA.I also loved the two moms and it was great to see how supportive they were of their kids even if they didn't fully agree with some of their decisions. I'm not sure how I feel about Tyler's dad, and given the timeframe whether it was credible or not, but, hey, this isn't real life so I just went with the flow. Eden's dad continues to be the greatest jackass to walk the planet and I'm glad that she took the bull by the horns and tried to tackle him at the end.My main complaint with this book is that there was no real conflict (beyond what we are used to in this series) and no climactic moment. I kept expecting some bombshell or obstacle to be thrown their way but nothing happened. The story seemed a little flat as a result. I still enjoyed it but I think it was lacking a little on the dramatic front. I also would have really loved an epilogue set in the future. Hopefully, both those points will be addressed in the new version and I look forward to checking it out.Having read this complete series now, I will say that I thoroughly enjoyed it and it was very addictive - I've read the three books pretty much non-stop, back to back, over the last few days, and I got totally immersed in the characters lives and the settings. I hugely enjoyed how each book had a different backdrop and that only added to the appeal. If you haven't checked this series out and you enjoy teen drama and angst and/or step-sibling romance, then I highly recommend it.

Exceptional
It was a fitting end to an amazing series. Did I Mention I Miss You? was so great, it wasn't as jam packed at the first two, this one seemed a lot slower paced. It picks up a year after the second book ended, and as you read you just know that good things are going to happen. I would highly recommend this book to anyone finishing off the series. It was emotional but not in the same way as the first two books, it was emotional in a sad and happy way. When the book ended it left me wanting more, I feel like I desperately need more updates on Tyler and Eden. I'm desperately finding another book series like this as I'm having withdrawal symptoms from it. Once again, a perfect ending to an amazing series.

5*'s for all 3 books
I absolutely loved the 3 books in the Did I Mention trilogy and they are without doubt my favourite YA novels since the Pushing The Limits series by Katie McGarry. I'll definitely be looking out for anything else the author publishes and if she keeps writing books like this I'll certainly keep buying them.

Nice light reading.
A must read if you have read 1 & 2 in the dimily trilogy. Not as entertaining or gripping as 'did I mention I love you' but wraps up all the loose ends and answers all the questions provoked by the first two books. It was a very easy read, so a great book if you want to switch off and relax.
