Honestly I wish I would have stopped after the first book. That one was just the best of the trilogy based on plot, mystery and engagement. The other two definitely aren't bad though, I just kind of had to drag myself to the finish line because I was kind of over it by the middle of the second book. It just felt like it was being dragged out just to push another book in a way that took all the fun out of figuring out the worlds worked. It also felt a bit pointless and did not answer any real questions about the way certain things worked. 

I've read a few other books from this author that i love so i was excited for this one and just ended up not being my vibe i guess. However i adored lilah & rhys relationship with Kl. Additionally if there is ever a spin off about meris and how she made her black market, i would read it in a heartbeat.
