One of the best fantasy YA romances I’ve ever read. 
Heartbreaking at times, and definitely had some even darker themes in this book than the previous ones, but I couldn’t put it down. 
Loved the story and am so glad that all the loose ends were tied up in such a great way. Will definitely miss the characters.

 Whoops, it’s been a whole month since I read this. Anyways. Exams bro 


 There was good in this book but also plenty of stuff I found pretty annoying. 
 The bad parts first: 
 - Not a single character
except for Tipp
can just be… normal. Why is everyone
some important person in disguise?
 
 - Major moments lost their impact later on.
Jaren lost his magic? Don’t worry, he can get it back! Caldon dies? Nah don’t worry, he actually survived!
 
 - The relationship between Kiva and Jaren is actually pretty toxic.
He avoids her like the plague for ages, keeps pushing her away, then when she internalises all that hate, he tells her to stop making herself the villain. Sir, YOU acted like she was one.
 
 - Give Jaren some flaws bro why is he perfect it’s kind of annoying 
 - There seemed to be some plot mishaps. For example,
the rings needs to be charged, which is a problem at some point cause they don’t work. Except they already charged them earlier in the book. I guess the author forgot about that.
 
 - That ending was not it. I don’t care
what the Warden did to you, sending him into his own prison to probably be tortured by his inmates, and having him compete in an Ordeal is cruel. Just execute him if you want him dead
 


 Good parts: 
 - I genuinely liked the relationship between Kiva and Cresta, although ofcourse it’s not that realistic that Cresta would do such a strong 180 after literally threatening to kill Tipp. 
 - Cresta and Caldon’s personalities and relationship were the best part of this book. 
 - There were quite a few moments where I got emotional/had to laugh. 


 So yeah, although this book was a pretty big step down from the first, and even from the second, there were still redeeming elements to it that made me feel something.

Lynette Noni really knows how to end a chapter that makes me want to continue on till late in the night. It was really hard putting this book down with how much adventure there was. Yes there were many characters to keep up with, but they've been building from the first two books. Omg I love Tipp. 
I couldn't stop crying at how much emotional turmoil I suffered through this. The last of the trilogy that has consumed my life this past week. So much heartbreak. So much heartache. Such an emotional drama that I could not get enough of.

Cute ending to a cute series. Wildly better than book 2, which was frankly a mess. Loved the characters, loved the sidequests, the plot was perfectly paced, and the ending wrapped up all loose ends nicely.

This book was easily the best in the trilogy!!! It was much faster paced & engaging than the first two. While I still didn’t really like the main character, I adored all of the others. I finished this book so quickly. Great if you liked six of crows
