I feel bad rating it just a three, but someone said this book suffered “middle book syndrome” and I fully agree.
I think the main reason I didn’t click with the book like k did with the first two was that there was a lot of filler. Things picked up once the characters ended up at the auction party, but from there to the acton-packed end was the last third of the book. 
I loved that we had some of William’s perspective, but then it just abruptly dropped off. I would have loved more (especially with Lark 👀).
I also wish we had more of Sel in this book 🥺 I still haven’t figured out how I feel about the twist ending. I’m a little disappointed with it. I know it’s supposed to be this big, exciting thing, but I didn’t like it.
It was unexpected though for sure! Props for that. 
And as always the descriptions and writing was beautiful 🙌🏼
