The Ending of Deerskin...

I have finished the book and am kind of confused with the ending in the book.  I didnt really understand why she was bleeding all over the place and her sister/mom was there.  I think she was reminded of her mother through the portrait, but it seemed weird when they said something about a sister.  I have to say I love Ossin!!! What a sweet ass guy! Im glad the king got what was coming with him.  I hate him, what a disgusting father.  He is so vain and crazy.  And what is up with lissar's mother... what an evil b*tch.  Lissar really lacked the mother and father she should have had, but in long run she made out.  She got a handsome prince, a dog that loves her so much, and the relief of her father out of her life.  All together, I really enjoyed Deerskin.  I really enjoy a good love story but this has some darkness and twist which made it enjoyable.  I could have went without the disgusting descriptions of the food her and Lissar ate in the hut!  Nasty, rotting foods, but she did what she had to do.  My favorite part of the story is the love between her and her dog.  I am also a dog lover and my dog cooper is awesome!  There is something about a dogs personality that is so fun-loving!
