why couldn't they just call the babe a baby. like everytime i read that word: cringeee.

also i think the ending was hurried. like briallyn was this big looming presence but in the end she was present for like one chapter. sjm just needed a villain for nesta to conquer.

loved nesta's journey. although her beating depression with meditation was annoying. because i know it hasn't worked for me so im jealous she was able to do that. ah yes, and with rigorous exercise. sjm's take on healing depression is this book basically. have a good book, train, meditate and have friends. oh yeah and kill a couple of people.

This book was emotional, and hopeful for those of us who have ever felt powerless. I love the strong female characters with the hearts of the broken and the determination of the warriors before them. I also loved getting to delve further into the “cold” oldest Archeron sister Nesta! I wanna be a “Valkyrie” so bad!

I put this book off for so long because I didn’t want to be done with the series (for now). I regret not reading it sooner!!

This book is vastly better than book 3 and significantly better than book 3.5. 
Honestly I enjoyed it more than I thought I would, there were some truly fun parts with the magic and the Blood Rite. And even though SJM had plenty of typical SJM bullshit (mates, no suspense, weird mannerisms and fake feminism) I still enjoyed reading it overall, and at times it wasn't because I was making fun of it lol

4.5

She put her whole Sarah J M-ASS into this book 🤌. 4.5 because there are some plot holes that are major plot points in this story cough cough
can’t walk down 10000 steps but can qualify for the rite
and cough cough
can alter dna to become an illeryan by shape shifting
there are more small things but those really were what bothered me. But I mean the story and the energy. Ty queen Sarah 👸
