My most anticipated book of the last two freaking years. s someone who waited and speculated for the realest….. it’s not what I thought it would be. It’s a lot darker, but also had so many happy moments. There was a plaint I was convinced there would be a. Book 4 but she managed to wrap it up in this one. I cried at the end. Also still forever pissed that ******spoilers…… no tog characters appeared by name*****

But the characters and there motivations and everything just ugh. Connor made me cry; my heart bleeds for Ithan always……… Ruhm yes. I think there will be another book cuz too many characters were left unfinished/unanswered.

Motherfucking banger from start to finish. For an 800+ page book it was never slow or boring (and I’ll admit that her first two had moments like this). I had a brief moment of inconsolable weeping and ended up loving it completely. Everything I needed and wanted.

 Je mehr ich über dieses Buch nachdenke, nachdem ich es gelesen habe, desto schlechter wird es.
