 Coming off the ending of the last book, I was eager to jump straight into this one. Not only might we finally get the answers to some deep-seated questions we've been pondering from the very beginning, but we might get to advance the romance! So without further ado...

Overall, this was equal parts frustrating and rewarding. I enjoyed the cast expansion while also being disappointed that some characters fell by the wayside; the more compact timeline allowed for better pacing, yet it was still packed-to-bursting with so many plot elements that it was easy to lose focus; and the portrayals of the romance and trauma both had ups and downs, but as they're largely unresolved I feel I still have to delay judgement. Since this series is largely an overarching epic, it's hard to pin down some of the depictions as good, bad, or otherwise when they're ultimately incomplete. About all I am sure of is that this book was one helluva ride from start to finish, and I can't wait to jump into the next one.
