Everything took SO long to get to and then the payoff was MEH. The emotional conclusion wasn't there. We were dragged all over the world for what?! To make it longer? UGH
One star because there were some bits of prose that took my damn breath away.
One star for El's character arc b/c that part was satisfying especially as it related to the prophecy. It was nice to see her step into her power and grow in the ways she did and end up surrounded by communmity.
1/2 star b/c I can imagine the reveals were HOLY SHIT moments if you weren't banging your head against the wall to *just* *be* *done* *already*.

I loved how different the world and rules were once we were outside the Scholomance. It was interesting to see how characters changed or did not change once they were in a different environment form the first two books.
There were some new characters introduced and the plot twists that happened in this book were so shocking that I had to put it down for a bit to digest what I had read and then had to go back to reading so I could get answers.
I think this book is a lot more character driven than the first two books. The book overall is still a mix of character and plot but I think how people are feeling and what they are doing because of that drives the book forward more. I feel like this book ended the series well and enjoyed reading each and everyone one of these books.

But then I read the rest in like 2 days - and honestly as the rest of this story unfolds I was in awe at the intricacy of the storytelling. This third and final book is definitely the one where all the little pieces of the puzzle come together so masterfully to tie everything together. You know when you get to that point in a series where everything just starts clicking, and things are being revealed that are just blowing your mind? I was screaming and squealing and just having such a good time. I also just absolutely adore El - I think she is honestly one of my favorite main characters ever. I love this series so much!
3/5 🌶️
