4.0

This was, hands down, the strongest one of the three in the trilogy. I think Bitterblue was a more relatable character than the other front females in the other books, even though I sometimes wanted to crawl inside the book and slap her. She was kinda mean sometimes, but that's a flaw I accepted. It was a bit slow in some parts, but overall I liked that the plot was a little calmer, a more political drama. I always like when you get to know the surroundings WITH your character, so for Bitterblue to see her castle with new eyes, and me being there experiencing it, was great.

I do think it was a little confusing, the relationship between Bitterblue and Saf, and I hoped to get a better closure. It kinda ended in thin air.
