I think that this book was the most entertaining book of the whole series! I think that the writing was much better than the last two books and was just much more detailed and descriptive. All throughout the book I was captured by the magic and wonders of the world, I’m sad that I finished the series, but am so glad I could follow along with this dangerously magical adventure.
Couldn’t keep my mouth from dropping to the floor when I found out Scarlet’s father was the Fallen Star. Amazing plot twist and scene! 👏👏👏

This book was such a fun read for me. I cannot wait to read "Once Upon A Broken Heart" and follow Jacks story even more. To me, he is the highlight of the book, and I hate that we don't get enough Jacks content. 
This book ended fine. Nothing happened quite like I would have wanted it to, but I still enjoyed the ending overall. The ending left me feeling pretty satisfied, even with Tella's choice. I wasn't sure I was going to like Legend as much as I did Jacks, but by the end I liked Legend enough to be okay with that being her final decision. Honestly, it does make more sense. She loved him for much longer, and they did have clear chemistry. 
I wish there had been a bit more Scarlett and Julian scenes. I love them together, and I would feel more complete if they had a few more scenes sprinkled in.


Overall, this is a very good book and a very good series. I do recommend, and I think I will love Jacks' spinoff even more.

I enjoyed this book but not as much as the first one. The sisters are still as careless and naive as they were in book one and that seems ridiculous given everything they’ve been through. Their plans for beating the bad guys just seemed silly and  super unrealistic. It was a fun read but I’m glad to be done with the world now.

The epic conclusion to the Caraval series was fantastical and fast-paced! I love seeing the ending of the Dragna sisters' journey and where they end up. Both sisters develop throughout the series, but their growth in this one is amazing! I can't wait for the holiday novella, Spectacular, coming out in October!!

Rating: 4/5 stars

The conclusion of the Caraval trilogy, Finale wraps up the tale of Scarlett, Tella, and the Fates.

This was a really fun end to the series. I still LOVE Dante and Jacks, and thought Julian had some great moments as well. Both of the sisters annoyed me in parts, but overall I enjoyed their boldness and appreciated finally getting both of their POVs in the same book.

I can’t much more without spoilers, but I had a lot of fun with this trilogy and highly recommend it! I’m excited to read the Once Upon a Broken Heart trilogy soon.
