Any Way the Wind Blows by Rainbow Rowell
4.0
I was apprehensive to start the third book in this trilogy because I just found book 2 really depressing. I found Simon’s post-chosen-one crisis to pull away from the story as well as all his friends in ways that just made me sad to read.
The start of this book follows a little of that, but I am happy to say that whilst the 20 year olds are all mentally fucked up and need lots of therapy, they are actually managing to start to get through that in this book! I found the writing really easy to fall into, it was a very easy read. There were lots of moments between characters that I really enjoyed. I enjoyed Simon working through his shit, and breaking down at times, but getting the comfort and reassurance needed. I enjoyed all the characters POVs and easy going slice-of-life style of plot (if mages and vampires can have slice-of-life haha)
If, like me, you were concerned about where the trilogy was going after book 2, let me reassure and recommend you complete it
