This is the 5 book in the series. It’s not the best one but it’s still quite good

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?

5.0

i thought i wouldn’t enjoy this book due to the religious aspect of it, but it definitely pulled through in the end. the major plot twist was predictable (to me), though i think it was resolved well. i think that everyone who “sinned” in this book got what they deserved, and i’m glad cade (mostly) realised that he was brainwashed and his (re)actions to things were because of said brainwashing. i think that the aspect of caring for someone who is neurodivergent could have been written better. i ran into the issue of thinking some bits of that side of the book were very “sob story” like.
