It was a decent book. My personal favorite in the series was the second book, but this one was pretty good too. The plot was interesting and kept me hooked. I feel like I really understood and knew the characters at this point in the story. The modern media references are one of the biggest downfalls of the book. They break the immersion. However, the conflicts kept me on the edge of my seat. The ending was satisfying and I feel like the story is complete. It would be cool to know the main character’s futures, but it was still a nice end. It’s definitely going to be weird reading a new book without these characters.

I finished this book DAYS ago and haven’t been able to get around to a review because I am still reeling from it. I want more, I need more 😂 I am so sad my time with Maeve, Roe, Lily, Fiona, Aaron, Nuala, Manson et al is over. This final installment had me literally up reading through the entire night (also partially the reason it’s taken so long to share my thoughts- this ND 36 year old doesn’t bounce back well from that). Honestly, if you love a good witchy vibe, folklore, cultish stuff - this is for you.
