3.75

was a solid 4.5 for most of the book, however I am unsure of my feelings at the end. I felt like it didn't feel as connected with the rest of the tone of the book, needed more insight? more build up or time for me to accept a shift that occurred in a characters attitude. felt a bit rushed and like too cleaned up, sets up nicely for the second book though.
