I'm so glad we got to see things from Des' point of view. Finally we really get an indepth look at his past and how he came to be him. I did always wonder why he spent so much time on Earth and now we know.
He is such a romantic.
Also, seeing their earlier scenes from his POV was halfway heartbreaking, but oh so wonderful.

I liked learning more about Des and seeing his past. It gave insight into why he did a lot of what he did and how he feels about Callie.

So, so, so much of a let down. 

The second half book was just a copy paste of the first two book. The scenes were same. The conversation  were the same. We didn't learn anything. It felt very what's the point of reading this when I already knew this from the other books. 

And any and all suspense that was supposed to be in the book just simply wasn't there because we already knew the outcome of the event from the other two books. 

I'm glad I got this on kindle unlimited, because if I would have bought this I would have felt like I wasted money. 

The only thing I liked was learning about Desmond's past in the first part of the book.

I don’t know why I enjoyed this more than books 1 and 2, but I did. And I think understanding Des’s perspective will help me enjoy book 4 even more.
