I'm not good at writing reviews but wow. Wow wow wow. That is all I can say. I truly believe it will be hard to top this series. Definently has set the bar high.
Holly Black has made me fall deeply in love with all the characters of faerie. Their development, even for the "side" characters, left me so invested in every single journey they had to take.
The ending was as wonderful as I would've hoped. I do wish it was drawn out a bit more, as the second half and subsequent end of the book felt very fast-paced. This was a blessing and a curse however, as I was biting my nails short at every suspensful twist and turn, but I would've loved to keep reading about their adventures in more detail. I firmly believe the short epilogue should be turned into a novella so I can fill the void that finishing this series has left.
Did I tell you I really enjoyed this book? So wonderful. 10/10 would recommend.
