Epic, stressful, emotional, heart-wrenching! Wonderful conclusion to a fantastic trilogy! 
That ending breaks my heart, but is also really beautiful and satisfying. It did wrap up very quickly in the last 50 or so pages, I would have loved just a bit more! I adore these strong, complicated, and intriguing female characters!

on one hand: this is probably the weakest installment in the series. on the other hand: idgaf this series has me in a chokehold and suri's character work is nuts and the conclusion feels Good.

A solid book and a good end to the series but it was a little too weighed down with all the characters and their various subplots. It felt like we didn't spend very much time with Malini and Priya together since so much other stuff was going on.

Overall, everyone had a pretty good ending. I think the priest plot wrapped up kind of weirdly cleanly but otherwise I didn't have any complaints about the end
