I was excited to read the close of this series, and I think it was mostly done quite well - by now, you are used to the unusual second-person narration and the plot moves along nicely, converging the various storylines. There are times when the author start to add in more world-building that feels a bit late and confusing - she can't get into it as much as previously, even if you want to know more. And in some ways, due to plot you spend less time with some characters you had loved. However, an admirable ending to the series overall! Definitely allegories to climate change, as well.
