A dark conclusion to a dark series. Really opened my eyes to the trope of platonic soulmates—Rin and Kitay’s relationship was incredible to read. 
The only issues I had with this book was that there were points where Kuang was repetitive with words or phrasing, as if she forgot she used them the first time (and these instances were obvious, such as the phrase “he shot her a wry look” being used twice on the same page and never used otherwise). Other than the few tiny errors that likely boiled down to slight misreads from the editor, the book and series as a whole was excellent.
