I was ready for this one to be my favorite book of the series but it ended up being the worst. Did I still enjoy it? Yes. (Even though it took me 3 months to read it…) The middle part of this book just felt like it lasted forever and nothing that interesting was really happening. The beginning and the end were very good though! I love the world and the characters so much. I loved seeing more character development too.
