Overall I enjoyed it more than the first book, less than the second, but it made me feel many things (particularly towards the end) and I think the highs are the highest in the series.

It was fine. I liked Adelina's redemption and I also liked that she wasn't given "a second chance" at the end. 
Over all as a series "from the villain's pov" it was quite refreshing to read. 
I feel like maybe it could've built up a bit more being the 3rd book, but it was still enjoyable. I also think that out of the 3 books the first one was the best one since you see the making of the villain; the other 2 were a bit "bland" in comparison. Still, i enjoyed reading, so 4 stars :)
