I'd been avoiding reading the third book of the Wayfarers series for quite some time... I think somewhere I wanted to know I had more to read before I started it... and since the 4th book came out in 2021, I needed to pick this one up and read it! It's been 3 years since I cried through A Closed and Common Orbit and I set up expectations too high... It wasn't as emotional of a read as I expected. I found the beginning of the book quite slow as I adjusted to the different character view points. 

I still enjoyed this book; I love all the characters in their own ways, but I didn't find the same level of "cannot put this book down" reading blitz I had before. Definitely still planning on picking up the 4th book, and going to try not to leave it sitting on my bookshelf for three years again ;)
