It took me forever to get through this trilogy because it kept sending me in to depressive spirals and then I wouldn’t wanna read anymore, or get out of bed, or do anything really. What a bleak and unforgiving world!

Wow. What an epic ending to this trilogy (yes i know there’s 2 more books later). This story had me shocked and gasping so many times. I felt so drawn to all the characters…even the ones I was supposed to not like Sir Pierce had me thinking like Darrow about a few of them. The adrenaline I felt while reading this is unreal-I’m not sure if the tummy ache I got was the book or all the gummy bears I was stress eating while reading.
