The best book in the trilogy. It was funny and loving but still had a bit of a thrill that left me on the edge of my seat. I love the characters I absolutely love cardan. These 3 books were the most easy reads I have read in a long time and I'm definitely going to read more of holly blacks books.

 don’t know if I’m in the minority here or not or if it’s because I’m sleep deprived but I am absolutely IN LOVE with this book.
