The Winner's Kiss by Marie Rutkoski
4.0

Hmm. After all the ups and downs in the second book, the climax - the biggest mess of all - should've happened here.

It kind of did, but it didn't feel that good?

I love how much Arin and Kestrel matured. And I hate to say this, but the war... the war was boring. Nothing really scared or shocked me the way the second book did. But it's a brilliant ending for these two, I suppose.

Regardless of how I feel about the war, Marie Rutkoski never stops taking my breath away with her writing. Overall, I think the second book is the best in this trilogy.
