This book was everything I wanted and more. I laughed, I cried, I celebrated, I cried some more… (seriously, I was in tears from around page 450 to the end). The absolute perfect way to cap off an amazing series.
I love that we finally get to see Laia and Helene (Blood Shrike) team up. Their dynamic is so fun and so deep. I didn't realize how similar their experiences are throughout the series, especially related to their families and Elias. We stan two women kicking ass and agreeing that men are trash while they do it. Also, Tahir delivers on all the slow-burn romances she set up throughout the series. I spent 3.75 books waiting for Laia and Elias to finally ~express~ their love and let me tell you: it was worth the damn wait.
