so, that was the final book. huh.
don't get your panties in a twist just yet, i liked the book so don't go shit on it just coz of the rating. let me lay down my gripes with the book first.
IT WAS SO LONG. over 600 pages, but i got through it in 4 days reading it on and off.
the testament of the toll thingies were weird. i didn't get the proper purpose of it. they were little more than fillers.
constantine my bae was done dirty this book. he disappeared as soon he couldn't serve the plot anymore.
the good-bye between citra and faraday was so half-assed bro like what? everything got forgotten as soon as rowan showed up. it was slightly irritating.
AND NOTHING EVEN PROPERLY EVER HAPPENS BETWEEN ROWAN AND CITRA???? ik that romance isn't a main point but i would never even call it a subplot for them. character really is not a strong point in these books. the ending was so ambiguous on all fronts—we never really get to see what happens properly. the last seene did feel like it was out of a nolan movie, though, in a good way. kudos to that.
yes, it was a rather stretched out book but ok.
let's get into stuff i liked.
GREYSON AND JERICO FJDKSKKS. I WANT THEM TO BE ENDGAME AND GOOD THING I GOT A HINT FOR IT. their first interaction was >>>> ik it rlly may not seem like much but bro the chemistry was palpable. i thought there was sumn btwn possouelo and jeri and was rooting for them BUT IM ON TEAM GREYSON SORRY.
i can't really say much proper about the book anymore. rand's obsession w tyger was not properly explained, and she never rlly does anything about it until at the end for plot purposes. i have mixed feelings about this book now that i think about it. i did expect there to some time jump but the timeline was very nonlinear in the beginning and at times confusing. i don't know if the execution was done well or not. it just fell a bit short of well, hmm yk what i'm changing the rating.
n e way, i don't got much to say. some things were good, some were meh, i didn't rlly care as much as i did in the second book.
the thunderhead and greyson had a sus relationship btw but JERI yay. greyson and jerico rlly saved this book for me. can't wait for the movies.
