I was kind of sad that I didn't read this book as fast as I wanted to read it. I personally loved this book. Everything about it. The plot the characters (Oh, the characters *swoon*).

Oh my God. Perfection. Just pure unadulterated perfection. I have no words.

I mean FIVE STARS DUH. What else can I give this masterpiece?!! 😍🔥🔥🔥🔥 SO MANY THINGS resonated with me on such a deep, personal level. The grief, the messages about healing. Just spectacular.

I truly believe this book suffered from middle book syndrome in the series and in itself. However, it did redeem itself towards the ending. I really like the new shifted focus to some more main characters - all strong females and very different each of them - Elide, Manon, and Lyssandra. I did not notice until this book that the dialogue suffers from being a bit clichéd but the book redeems itself by the characters and the world building despite the writing style (which is at least quick and eas

THIS WAS GLORY AT ITS FINEST!!!! THIS WAS SOOOOO GOOD.
I have such a bad book hangover because of this book and I have no regrets. This book was so good, words cannot express the love I'm having for this series. There was so much greatness in this book and it paints me to think I have basically an entire YEAR until I have the next one.

What can I say that hasn’t already been said? These books are amazing and get better and better as the series goes on. I won’t talk too much about this as it is the 5th book in the series. But, I will say this one was action packed, emotion filled and amazing. I highlighted so many quotes. I’m devouring this series but at the same time I don’t want it to end. I’m off to tandem read now. Wish me luck!
