WOOF THAT WAS GOOD!!!!! i'm so glad i already own the 4th book and don't have to wait for it to come out for me to read it bc that ending....that would have killed me if i had to wait months for the release of the next book.

i will say this book took me a while to get into...it was probably page 200 before i was really invested in the story again. i think this was partially due to the fact it's been a few months since i read the first two books in the series and had to get reacquainted with the world and the politics of everything. but once things got going in the second half of the book.....WOW BESTIE!!! U GOT ME!!!!

laia continues to be a legend...that GIRL....everything and more! i honestly enjoyed all of the perspectives in this book which was surprising considering how helene was one of my least favorite characters in the first two books. she's....grown on me i can't lie. 

also this book had some twists that left me MOUTH AGAPE. i also cried so extra points for this book for managing that...and now i'm scared for the 4th and final book shshshs girl help
