5.0

This series was a 5 star series for me, with every single book being an exploration of hope, humanity, and building community. This final installment's exploration of family, found family, and valuing differences between people resonated so much with me. I deeply enjoy how this series explores a hopeful future. I particularly loved Speaker and Roveg as characters. I even enjoy the bittersweet endings that don't wrap up everything with a pretty bow and instead leave us to fill in some elements about the character's future. I will definitely miss this world and this series.
