I thought the climax was a bit too convoluted and not a great payoff to the slower parts of the book. Did enjoy the dream sequences with John. Definitely missed the more developed voices of Harrow and Gideon, so much of Nona's personality is not really knowing what's going on because she's a baby and I didn't find that quite as compelling. Still looking forward to the fourth book though.
