Great book. Definitely the best in the series so far. I loved the addition of Mehitabel's POV - the author writes her narrative voice wonderfully, and it feels completely distinct from the other main characters.  The prose is compelling, and with a unique turn of phrase that I love.

Loved it, again! But I feel like once again the ending was very rushed. The majority of the book was slow paced and not too much really exciting happened, and then we get to the last 10% and Everything Happens At Once!!
