I truly enjoyed this book up til the epilogue/last chapter. I know there's a sequel which I presume was planned when this one was written, so I'll probably dislike the ending less after reading that, but the tone shift felt massive and jumping from a place where all the characters were pretty stable and happy in their relationships and what not to the epilogue where
it basically just felt like everything was exploded for no reason
was a Big tonal shift I was not necessarily expecting and don't necessarily feel like added anything besides trying to get people to buy the next book.
