I thoroughly enjoyed this volume and it was quick to get through for a big this size. I had a much more emotional connection with this one than the previous, but didn't love it as much as the 2nd. Still an intelligent book. I feel as the romance wasn't as central to the plot, this influenced by less attachment, but I still really enjoyed the read.
