I loved the entire trilogy. The story development in Finale closed some doubts I had, although it left me with some other ones 😅. Like Caraval it's a light and quick read, which doesn't stop the description from transporting you to the place as you read. I loved the ending as it is left open to the imagination.
I feel like I need more of Legend and Tella's story 🙉.

I wish there had been a bit more Scarlett and Julian scenes. I love them together, and I would feel more complete if they had a few more scenes sprinkled in.
Overall, this is a very good book and a very good series. I do recommend, and I think I will love Jacks' spinoff even more.

i LOVED caraval and loved legendary even more. but this book was just…a huge disappointment.
first of all, there were so many plot points that went nowhere.
tella and jacks being married was a great plot twist and i gasped. it could’ve been great to see that played out, but no it was immediately rectified the next chapter and jacks just undid it? huh? alright then
those are just two examples but there were a lot of plot points (namely with their mother) that i felt weren’t necessary and that were just abandoned/solved too quickly
second of all, wtf? this book was all over the place. it felt like stephanie implemented so many little threads throughout the other books and then realized “oh shit i have to wrap all this up”
things either happened way too conveniently and quick for these characters or frustratingly wrong and some parts of this book just felt both rushed AND drawn out. at the same time.
i do still love these characters, this world, and this whole story, but this final book was such a let down. besides the romance with
