4.25 out of 5 ☆’s.

“It was time for the King and his army to fall. And the Vega Queens to rise.”

ੈ✩‧₊˚

To quote The Script: “I’m still alive, but I’m barely breathing.”

If I’m being honest — I don’t know if I have enough emotional energy in me to continue the series…

(I will be starting ”Heartless Sky” soon regardless, though, because if I take a break now then I just know that I will never gather up the courage to read it…)

ੈ✩‧₊˚

Wish me luck! ♡

Love this series so much. Super glad that it wasn't as depressing as the last couple books! I have no other works for this book other than the fact that I loved every page of it.

3.0

Questo volume è stato decisamente meno avvincente dei precedenti, sia a causa di un inizio lungo che non mi ha preso, sia per alcune idiozie compiute dai protagonisti sul finale e il fatto che esso mi sia sembrato troppo improvviso e affrettato.

Per fortuna il prossimo volume esce tra un po', quindi spero che prendendomi una pausa da questo mondo, potrò apprezzare il prossimo volume maggiormente.

4.5

I had to read this one slowly only because I know the next book isn't projected to release until December (possibly sooner !! ALSO - the LAST book?! AHHH). As usual, Caroline & Susanne know how to hit their readers right in the feels, but also with laughs and great romantic moments. Words can't even begin to describe how much I have loved reading this series. I will wait with bated breath for the much-anticipated conclusion, but until then I'll prob reread ZA over & over and give their other series a go. By the stars, I can't wait!
