I honestly enjoyed this book more than I thought I would. I was sad that Finch didn’t show up right away considering how much I loved him but the story that was building took over that want to see him. I’m glad we got his perspective eventually. I honestly loved hearing what was going on after he stayed behind. Plus his silly little letters I just loved the concept of that. I have so many questions related to the sleeping area they left but at the same time I’m kind of glad we didn’t get an explanation I feel like I wouldn’t of really liked any answer provided. Plus I am slightly curious about the other ex stories but not enough to want another book in the series by any means. I feel like this was overall a pretty good ending for this series.

Other reviews said this book was slow but I'm in love with the story's, the ex-storys, and the hinterland itself. It has a touch of dreamer magic and I love it.
