ok ok ok I have a lot to say about this book, but firstly: to the person on the internet who said that you could read this any time after reading crave, what made you say this? While technically it is true, I just simply would say that it's a bad idea. Especially the epilogue. I didn't even finish readin it because the first three pages of it felt weird to me and then I realised, that the rest of it will probably contain even more spoilers. I think it would've been better, if I would've read this after reading all the other books published in this series.
 
The rest contains minor spoilers 

Secondly I have very mixed feeling  about this book. At some points of time, especially in the beginning and middle part, I really enjoyed it, but in the end - while they found out all this stuff with the mayor and fighting the dragons etc. - it was really boring. Particularly the fight scenes. The first one was mediocre and I wouldn't have minded it if was just for this one, but really? Were three times of what felt like the same fight scene all over again really necessary?

Lastly I just want to say, that while I think that this was probably the worst book of what I read of this series so far, I still really enjoyed the relationship between Grace and Hudson, it was really cute.
