I don't know how to quantify my feelings into words. I don't think it's possible. I don't even want to try, because I won't make sense and I wouldn't be able to do it properly.
Maggie Stiefvater is undoubtedly a spectacularly talented author, and she has created a world unlike anything I have ever seen, heard, or read before. I really believe no other series I ever read for the rest of my life will be able to match up to the world of the Raven Cycle. There are so many moving parts to it, and so much magic. Maggie has created an ourobouros of a story that I could never, ever have imagined. The Raven Cycle has always been a thing of beauty to me, and will always remain that way. It will never lose its magic, but The Dreamer Trilogy is something even more ethereal. It changes the entire perspective of The Raven Cycle. It turns the entire world on its head in mind-bending ways. It answers so many questions, and yet still leaves more unanswered.
Maggie's talent for the craft is unmatched. I can't say how much this world and these characters she's created have meant to me for so many years, and how much these stories have influenced my life. All the words in the world aren't enough. I'm just truly in awe. I'm mourning the end of this series and the end of this world, but at the same time, it's unforgettable, and that means it will never truly end.
Five stars isn't enough. It's such a small limit to contain the depths of feeling this series inspires. Too small a number.
I would go back to school just to write an essay on this book and everything it holds. It's not just a book; it's an art piece. It was both everything I wanted and nothing I expected, all the things I didn't know I needed from the end of this world, and it is simply stunning from cover to cover.
It's magic. Pure magic. And it will be a part of my heart forever. But my heart doesn't even feel big enough to hold it.

The Dreamer trilogy doesn’t inspire me quite as much as the Raven Cycle. But I adore these characters still, and there are still moments in this trilogy, and this book, where Maggie somehow manages in that unique way to unplug and re-connect my brain (affectionate).
i loved this book. i loved this whole series. i don't need to be a visionary to know i will re-read it many times in my future. <3
Not a review, just my favourite quote: 'In that world, the air was music. The water was flowers. There were new colours born every moment. It could not be described with human words; the systems were too different.'

“Neither Ronan nor Adam had been trained in the difficult and nuanced art of having a future. They had only ever learned the art of surviving the past.”
This isn't really going to be a review. I don't think I could really 'review' this book, it means too much to me to have it in my hands and know that this is the end of The Raven Cycle. This is the end.
I read the first Raven Cycle book, by my best estimation, when I was thirteen. They mean so much to me I can't quantify it, they're one of the reasons I'm a writer. Now I'm twenty and graduating from a BFA in creative writing, I've seen my own work in print. This series and it's characters are coming to a close and now they're stepping out into the rest of their lives. And so am I.
Thank you @maggie_stiefvater for everything, for crafting a world made for dreamers.

This final book was an amazing end to an amazing universe and series. All the loose ends were tied up, all the questions answered, and there was even some final twists and turns I didn't see coming. Was a fantastic read, I'm kind of sad it's over.
