 This sequel and conclusion was more about the  emotional depth Brisesis faces , physical and mental. Versus the actual danger and exploration  of the gift and her lost aunt , friends and partner Marie have. The cost gives her way time a majority  of the plotline. And by the time it got to where  the major conflict takes it just didn't  excite as much. 

 Love the detail of the gifts and the family dynamics plus bonds in this series though. But it didn't  have to be so much of them waiting  around to resolve things.  So therefore it was not complete trash. But not higher on the best fantasy, in particular  YA out there.

I can’t decide if I should put this as a 4 star or 3.75 
I enjoyed reading the ending of this story but it wasn’t as impactful as I expected and the ending didn’t make me emotional or anything for some reason 
Overall though I  enjoyed this story and I’m glad I read it :) both this series along with Cinderella is Dead are really well done
