There are definitely a couple of things about this trilogy I didn't like as much. I can't really tell how satisfied I am with the ending of this particular book. Still, I honestly think a lot of it comes down to me being absolutely obsessed with The Raven Cycle, and a follow-up couldn't possibly live up to the many years of hype/expectations/emotional connection with the characters and themes. Anyways, I love love love reading Maggie Stiefvater's books and she did such cool things with this trilogy that I really vibed with even though I'm not as obsessed as I wish I was.

I love Maggie’s writing style and enjoyed the shifting perspectives in this book. I enjoyed the focus on the Lynch family and the brothers’ relationships with one another. I really wish there had been a chapter about Byrde and Matthew to tell about their experience at the end as the quick explanation from Matthew didn’t do it enough justice. I would love to read more about the Dreamers and their origin.

medium-paced

While I wasn't super excited about the other installments (it felt a little too scattered at times), it all paid off in this one. I also enjoyed the nods to things that were originally asked and developed in the Raven Cycle. A good time and it made me appreciate the other installments in this series more—which to me is an indicator of an excellent conclusion.

Sobbing on floor is where I was after this book. A fantastic end to a fantastic series. I miss them already.
