That is this book in a nut shell.
Happy with where everything ended up (minus the utterly unnecessary epilogue…. Ummm, novella please!) and characters were written in a way that felt like an east progression of development and arcs.
Devastation happened, allies formed and broken, and just basically a hero battle the likes of Avengers End Game.
I think it does need a novella to make up for the glaring and gaping hole that this epilogue left, but otherwise things were pretty satisfying.

Spoiler
the ending. i am so sad we never got to see an evie and nova reunion. also i didn't like how there wasn't much resolution with the squad and especially adrian and nova. however, i absolutely admire the grace and incredible forgiveness that adrian demonstrates to nova. that won me over. i still am not super invested into their romance, but they are pretty cool characters. i thought it could use more work fleshing out the good vs evil conflict and the issue of moral ambiguity. i also didn't fully understand the whole supernova star thing - i felt that could've been talked about more. the deaths saddened me tho, but mostly callum 🥹 he was the most wholesome renegade everGraphic: Injury/Injury detail, Death, and Torture

This series didn’t go how I thought it was going to but I enjoyed it nonetheless. I love a happy ending and I love the potential for more (especially with that epilogue). The conclusion of this trilogy continued to ask interesting questions of morality as Nova and Adrian’s secrets got closer and closer to coming to light. I just didn’t think those secrets could come to light and then go back into the dark. That being said the plot was a little all over the place and some of these characters aren’t the smartest with putting two and two together, but at it’s core this series is about heroes and villains and the choices we make defining who we are. Overall, this was an interesting world to be in, I’m gonna miss these characters a lot, and I’m holding out hope for more in the future.
