It was a slow read for me as I didn’t find Lucy Gray as likeable as she’s meant to be until about 75% through. The nods to the books were nice to spot but it’s been so long since I read them that the interest just wasn’t really there

For a 500+ page book, it wrapped up a little too fast for my tastes, with all the big climactic elements happening in the last 40 pages. I feel it needed more time to breathe, and for the character turns to be truly explored, but I was overall still satisfied, and would recommend if you’re a fan of the series.
