The best book so far in this series! The last dozen chapters had me pacing and gasping and squawking and yelling and nearly crying while following the action!

This book just became my favourite of the series. It was so so good. Starting in the Spring Court made me already excited and then the end, oh. my. god. The hype I felt while reading this book, it was incredible. 
So well written! So heartbreaking, and so many twists, but so good! 
I don't have words for it, but I can say i really enjoyed reading all of it. From begin to end. Bat boys, go!
