Finale was enjoyable and it was lovely to see the growth of some of the characters. The plot was good, despite the lack of anything to do with Caraval and the almost abandoned or rushed plot points that cropped up within. I do feel some of the characters could’ve had a stronger role in the book or been developed better.

Overall, it was relaxing, enjoyable and a good ending to the trilogy.

A really interesting series. I enjoyed the world building in concept of fates and deck of destiny.  The pacing was good and I enjoyed the tension. 

Minus one star for a few plot holes and characters who weren’t mentioned at the the of the book.

A good conclusion to the Caraval trilogy, again more dress designs than I needed ...but I liked the characters and was riveted by their stories. Also I liked the ending

i’m happy we got Scarlett’s POV back and i think i’m in the minority when i say i enjoyed her part of the story much more than i did Tella’s.
