I am absolutely speechless.

I’m taking a break from this series because I don’t want to finish book 6 and then have to wait for the finale in book 7 but needed to write down my brief thoughts here.

The first 4 books and first 80% of book 5 all build to one of the most emotional moments I have ever experienced in a book. I physically felt what Hadrian was going through and was shaking and fighting back tears at one point. I can’t remember the last book (or series) that made me feel this way. I’m blown away.
