i found the merging with gods thing to be weird. carter was also still kinda annoying. sadie slays and is awesome though, and the egyptian mythology was interesting

The thrilling conclusion, it follows up on everything we’ve been waiting for in this series. Carter and Sadie’s journey has been a thrill to experience, and it ends in a very satisfying way.

Umm, I'm really not sure what to say. I'm a little disappointed, maybe. I just didn't feel that it was a great ending. It could have been a lot better, for sure.

Personally,I like feeling overwhelmed, especially when it comes to the last book in a series. And I did feel overwhelmed, but only for like, a chapter or so. Which is really disappointing for me. At the end of a book I'm usually gushing about it and thinking about it for hours, even days, later, but not with this one. I just went on ahead and picked up another book.

Nevertheless, still a good read. It might get a little confusing for those not so familiar with Egyptian mythology, like me. But there's always a glossary at the end to help you by. :)
