So... I don't know where I fall now having finished the series. There's a weird void, from this having been the last 3mo of my life, at the same time it suffers from what most endings suffer from in not living up to whatever expectations I had inadvertently setup in my head. Being aware of all that I'll say I still enjoyed it. I also kind of felt like the honeymoon phase with me and this series was coming to an end and I looked back and can see how many issues and plot holes there were. Did it stop me from enjoying the heck out of it though? Not really. Anyways the journey is at an end, and I enjoyed the ride. Is it going in my favorites? Not sure on that. I have some favorite moments and characters though. Lysandra is everything to me. But I seriously mostly read this series for a lot of the side characters if I'm honest.
