I really like the plot. It was a great ending to the series. What is hard to read is the way Mera talks. I had to skip several pages because of this. Hopefully the spin off its better since its about other characters.

DNF 60% I liked the first two books but this one was just so repetitive and it just couldn’t hold my attention at the end.

A good book
I liked the finale to the series. It was a bit predictable in some ways and some chapters felt like filler chapters, but all in all I liked it. It made me laugh and tear up, and I wanted to hug all the characters at one point. Overall I would recommend reading this series.

Holy Moly Y’all!!
What a great ending. I was laughing, I was nail-biting, I was crying, I was cheering, I was swooning....I was having all the feels! I’m going to have to reread this whole series again, especially this book, because I read this book as fast as good with loads of distractions (like getting a new puppy).

This book was ... A LOT. But in a good way mostly. A lot of drama. A lot of action. A lot of spice. A lot of tears. Perfect ending to the story of Shadowshine. The way these two loved each other was a great thing to see. He is such the embodiment of "burning the whole world" for the person he loves.
The end of book 2 left things even worse than the end of book 1. These books definitely had dramatic cliffhangers. But Mera, not one to take things at face value, works hard to reunite with Shadow. And their reunion is worth the wait. As well as the reunion with the rest of their "pack".
The "final battle" kept me enthralled. I had to take in every word because I didn't want to miss anything that happened.
Overall, a really good ending for Shadow and Mera and an irresistible introduction to the next book set in this universe. We were teased with a backstory between the leads in book 4. So I can't wait to see what book 4 offers.

Yes, yes, and SO much yes!
I LITERALLY could not put this book down, I laid in bed all night to read it! Talk about emotional roller coasters!
At the end of the previous book, Dannie (who became corrupt) took Mera's memories and sent her back to her pack. Things had finally been looking up in the last book, then this happened! I almost couldn't even deal. I was tempted to put the book down and pretend it just ended happily ever after already, even though I was certain things would obviously turn out fine in the end of this book, anyways. But it was still hard to deal with when you're so invested in the characters!!
I won't give any spoilers whatsoever, but this book had me smiling, grinning, LEGIT crying... Here I was wanting to put the book down and quit for my own emotional well-being, and by the end I decided that up to this point, this has been my favourite book so far (#1 probably being my second fave!)
I know there's 2 more books after this (1 being released at the end of the month, at the time of this review), and I SUSPECT I know who the next book is about, but after I finally get some sleep, I'm diving into it next!
PS: There was actually one chapter from Shadow's POV in this book, which was awesome!
