Yuck. This was one of the worst books I have ever read. The mere fact that I have finished this series makes me feel sick; my entire quality of life has been reduced after reading this particular book. The entire concept of fetishising religion just makes me want to gouge my eyes out. I miss the days I was illiterate. 

My only silver lining is that this series is finally finished. 

UPDATE: so I just found out that there is another one coming... I am genuinely reconsidering my life choices. What is the reason for all this torture?

Again Wretched is her best book. This one is maybe a close second but doesn’t hit. I felt like there was a lot of angst and no reward.

This def gave Priest vibes not in a bad way. I would say if you want to read saint/sinner, priest/sinner tropes this would be a good book to dip your toe in.
