I liked this book more than I expected to considering I went into it kind of indifferent about Chaol. Still glad I did the tandem read. Definitely worth it for the way both books wrapped up nicely together and actually finishing with this book was definitely better.

I hate this book with every fiber of my being. Chaol Westfall is an awful character who defers only suffering, and I think poor darling Yrene deserved better. All of the twists? Absolutely saw them coming. The blatant and sickening ableism in this book? Disgusting. The only reason I didn’t DNF was because I would’ve been upset that I let a book beat me, and I’d already spent 8 1/2 hours slogging through it.
