**SLIGHT SPOILERS BELOW**
There seemed to be a bit of romance between Bitterblue and two of the male characters, but nothing comes of it. Which was disappointing. Like what was the point then?
The ending was somewhat worth the boring struggle of this unnecessarily long novel. They tied in characters from Fire. But that was it. The answers we get from Leck's mysterious reign are finally answered, but one with a brain can figure it out within the 1st 150 pages.
This book was mostly unnecessary and I'm glad it's over. I am disappointed.

While you can read this book without reading the previous two (I think), there's nuggets of backstory you'll miss. This book really draws all 3 together. I loved being able to see Bitterblue's journey play out, and I was honestly hooked until the end.
