I haven’t found books that have left me sad that the world is not real, in such a long time. But good lord these books!!! I keep telling myself I’ll take a break from the series after the end of the book….. but then I can’t help but come back to these characters and loose myself in the world once again.
I have officially become a ACOTAR fan. And I don’t think anything will be changing that.

First and foremost, this is a book about war. While I felt the pacing worked well, the battle scenes did start to feel repetitive, and I felt myself eager to get past the action and on to some character development. Speaking of which, I felt as if the characters took smaller strides of development as compared to the last book. For instance,
However, what really let me down about the plot was the constant deus ex machina that seemed to be wrapping up the hardships of this book in a pretty bow. Instances such as
That all being said, I have to admit that I still enjoyed this read, and it had some lovely twists and turns that kept me turning pages. I felt invested in all the main characters, and I was cheering them all on from page one. This felt like a satisfying conclusion to the trilogy. That, and it does leave room and intrigue for other spin off stories, which is a very exciting aspect of this in-process series!
