I loved this book. It was awesome to have no human POV characters and to get a more intricate look into Chambers' world building. I love how she writes about language and communication. It was a great conclusion to a series that was unlike an other Sci-Fi series I have ever read. I hope other authors follow her lead.

Also, Chambers shows a true understanding of what being a twin means and uses Speaker and Tracker's relationship well without belittling it or making it an obvious prop. I think their relationship was extremely sweet and realistic. It reminded me a lot of my relationship with my twin sister.
