The Toll by Neal Shusterman
4.25
adventurous challenging dark emotional funny hopeful mysterious reflective sad tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

Absolutely amazing series! Was such a weird feeling of wanting to read the book and being so invested but also the absolute dread of what could happen to the characters.
I did think this was a little long to read, but it was extremely well written as always. I love how the author introduces characters and sets the scene.
I honestly don’t know how I feel about the ending ???
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I don’t see how the ‘romance’ between citra and rowan is needed.. however their reunion and their ending did make me tear up a little.
ALSO I NEED TO KNOW IF SISTER ASTRID MADE IT BC WTF <spoiler/>
