To be completely honest I felt like this book was a bit of a dissapointment as an ending to its counterparts. I just feel completely unsatisfied an quite frankly a little annoyed at how the stories of each character ended.
I felt as though the most important parts, the parts that were the most interesting were left to be open ended, im not entirely sure how to describe it except from unfinished.
As always the writing was good, there was a healthy amount of words and concepts too large that I could not wrap my head around which is what I had grown to expect from reading the other two so it is easy to say that this book has been consistent in that regard. The actual personality and grown aside from one character I felt like fit exactly where we left off, it felt natural and I understood why each character made the decision they did.
What I didn't understand that with the large events that happened which was very late in the book i felt like there were no consequences. Chracaters were able to do what they wanted with little blowback, it just felt like a hey everything is fine now situation. Also, with the exception of Parisa I don't feel like anyone actually did anything from the end of the first third to the finale.
Overall as I am sure is obvious it just didn't live up to the expectations I had and I don't feel fulfilled with this ending even though I'm not mad with the actual events that happened. I just don't believe that if fit with the narrative that the book set out.
