I believe this might be my favorite so far. Watching Celena work through her trauma was just as heartbreaking as it was cathartic.
My only qualm, was the switch between POVs. It did throw me an off once in a while because I would be so invested in that current story and then I’d be swiped away to something else. I did think it helped paint the picture but man was this book good. I loved how SJM was also able to tie together so many small moments from the other books and Celena’s past to end with such a bang. It was truly a great book with wonderful character development, world-building, introduction to new characters and spaces, and overall the build up of this powerful enemy. Loved it!
