I know many people love these books, but I can not say the same. I did not mind the past two books, but before I read this one, I read Pride and Prejudice. The writing style of this book is nothing compared to Pride and Prejudice. The way it is written is suitable for those who don’t read often or younger kids. Plus, personally I’m not the biggest fan of fantasy, it is not believable. I didn’t grow a connection with the characters and I’ve never read a story on whatpadd, but this felt like a whatpadd story. It was not boring though which is why I gave it three stars.

We see a different side of Jude and Cardan in the final book, they've grown and learned a thing or two from working with each other. Was this the ending I hoped for at the start of the series? No, I wanted something more cruel. But I'm glad we got a happy ending for our main characters.
