very much satisfied with the ending. i’m gonna miss this series so much.

this book had it’s weaker moments, i really think it could’ve been much shorter and the pacing wasn’t that great. 

some POVs (especially at the beginning) were kinda boring. it felt off how i had to read about Aedion’s whiny complains and Chaol and Yrene’s shitty idea to meet his parents while the POVs revolving around Dorian/Manon & Aelin/Fenrys and the “looking for Aelin” team were just so much better? 

the reunions, the reveals and the action/battles were absolutely the best parts of that book, i had so much fun there. and i have almost zero complains about the ending, i loved these characters so much and i would absolutely read more of this world.

I love to read fantasy and it had been a long time (almost 15 years) since a book series made me fall in love with it so thoroughly. I have not cried this much over the ending of a series since Harry Potter in 2007. 
This was a beautifully written ending to a stunning, complicated, well rounded and overall spectacular set of stories. I cannot wait to start my reread in a couple of months in preparation for the next of SJMs books to come out. 
I am so thankful for these characters and their stories. I am thankful that I got to take all of this in the way that I did, it was magical.
