Wow! Just wow! I was intrigued the entire book, was never bored. The characters were realistic and alive and heartbreaking. Overall I really enjoyed this as a wrap up of the trilogy. I didn't read this as a child and presumed it would be bad but the entire series just blew me away! Recommend to everyone. (I would say more but I don't want to spoil anything.) Excited to read the new one!

I wish I had read this book closer to having read the two previous ones so I would've remembered more details. Having said that, I still enjoyed it, but I will probably go back & read all three closer to each other at some point in the future for maximum enjoyment.
Oh, and I also wish that some of the maps/figures that were at the end of the book were up at the front. It was slightly irritating to come to the end of the book only to find illustrations that probably would've been nice to have known were there while actually reading.

As is common in this series, the books are pretty separate, having characters in common, but the main character has changed. I definitely liked this one the most out of the 3 I have read thus far. Even though at times it felt a bit cluttered because there were so many storylines running parallel, everything started unraveling nicely.
I did feel as if the ending came too suddenly - all storylines got fixed so quickly, that it felt a bit unrealistic, given how much of the book was spent being in the dark about everything, and then suddenly everything got solved with the snap of a finger.
Definitely will finish this series and excited to see more of Bitterblue in the next book.

I really liked it
It’s YA lit but the emotions feel real and the story constructs itself to make sense. World is well built and bitterblue learns with us.

I really wanted to love this book, but it was just too confusing, too slow in some places and some of the details seemed really sketchy. I enjoyed it, but didn't love it as much as Graceling and Fire. Whatever Cashore chooses to write after this I will definitely still read!
