Finale by Stephanie Garber
medium-paced
5.0
“A love worth fighting for. A dream worth dying for. An ending worth waiting for.”
The way I feel about the Caraval series is perfectly captured in these words. It truly touched my heart, and the plot was excellent. I will always have a special place in my heart for it. Stephanie Garber conjured out a colorful, surreal universe. I finished the book so quickly that I wish I could have read it slower to continue.
I loved how Finale is delivered from Tella and Scarlett's perspectives. While keeping their own distinct stories, both women were a part of the same broader plot and while romance plays a major part in both of their lives while involving new love triangles they also face a lot of difficulties along the way. These girls must fight for their hearts, each other, and the world. I love that we got more of everyone in this book Scarlett, Donatella, Julian, and Dante. Scarlett and Donatella were both such great heroines, the way they continued to sacrifice for each other and look out for one another just spoke volumes about their relationship as sisters.
I know Jacks is supposed to be a villain but there was something about Jacks saying "my love" that just did it for me, and now I can see why all of us girls want more of him. Jacks and Dante both had that bad-boy vibe, so it was terrible to feel like my heart was bouncing back and forth between them idc I loved Jacks and would be happy with him too. … sometimes all a girl wants is the villain or in this case villain(s). Dante and Julian came into their own in the end and I really appreciated that, because there were a lot of things left unsettled in Legendary between these four but everything tied together so beautifully and I loved it.
I felt like I was holding onto this book the entire time and couldn't let it down. It's devastating that it has finally come to an end, but I can't wait to move on to the OUABH series.
