Wow, what an ending.
I think this was my favourite instalment in the series, once I started it I could barely put it down. I would recommend someone start the AGGGTM series so that they can read this book.
In terms of the plot I loved how everything connected together, right from the beginning, we were building up to the climax of this book. The same characters we see throughout the series transformed, their bonds strengthened, and the stakes higher than they have ever been. I honestly could not predict what was going to happen at any point it was so thrilling.
It is just so wild to see where Pip is at here as compared to where she was when this series began. I adored Pip as a main character and felt sorrowful for her throughout the book as grappled with PTSD and differentiating between good and bad. Her relationship with Ravi was so sweet and a small glimpse of light in a very dark book.
I honestly feel like the hype is so well deserved after reading this instalment, it was the perfect ending to an excellent series.
