Tressa (Wishful Endings)
This series has been so interesting and unique. I have loved the world-building, the characters, and the struggles for peace and love. There was so much going on and so many pieces in play. I loved many of the twists and how much of it all turned out. I also loved all the characters. There was such an impossible task ahead of them and I felt that this was a fabulous end to the series. It explained much and nothing was easy. No nice little bows to tie off this series.

I did become a little impati

So we've finally come to the end.

I'd been trying to stave off the ending for as long as I could, but I guess no story lasts forever.

DOGAM, of course, was amazing. It was a beautiful conclusion to an epic trilogy. I remember how the first book, Daughter of Smoke and Bone, got me hooked, with its gritty premise (bones! teeth! exotic places like Morocco!), vivid characters and scenes (Brimstone the ram-headed resurrectionist! Razgut the foul, bloated fallen angel! the masquerade ball where Akiva ma

An exciting ending to a beautifully written series. Laini Taylor's writing shines throughout. I want to write like her when I grow up. Suspenseful, frequently funny and often horrifying, you'll want to crawl into this story and stay for a long time. There are parts where the pacing drags, but it builds to a satisfying conclusion (unlike many other books I've read) and it's all worth it in the end. I highly recommend this book and the two that came before it. ...more

I loved this book, right up there with the first one in the series. I'm not sure what happened with the second in the series as I really didn't like it that much. Not sure if it was me or the time I read it or exactly what so maybe I'll have to try to reread this series at some time. I loved getting back into the swing with Karou, Zuzanna, Mik, Akiva, Lireal, and the introduction of Eliza. I especially liked Eliza's story line. ...more

As always, there was a rollercoaster of feels in this one. I was so worried at the end but it all worked itself out and I'm just totally blown away by how great it all was. I still can't believe it's over. The last twist seemed pretty late in the game and kind of overwhelming but I still loved the series. It will forever be one of my all time favorites! <3 ...more
