I really loved first 3 books and disliked Map Of Days so this book was a deciding factor on whether or not i should continue reading.
Sadly i think i will not, the world which was my favourite aspect of the series feels dull and lifeless and i feel less attached to the characters as the series goes on. Another aspect i disliked is that the photos throughout the novel were not connected to the novel like the first 3 books.

Another great installment of this series. I'm enjoying the new romance that is budding. I was always a little weirded out by the original romance.

I'm just...disappointed
This book is nowhere near to the standard of the first three books, which were AMAZING and what made me fall in love with this world in the first place.
The Conference of the Birds just feels flat, a filler book rather than a proper story. Don't even get me started on the Jacob-Noor romance, which I absolutely despised. It just fustrates me that Mr Riggs spent 3-4 books building up the relationship between Emma and Jacob, only to suddenly have it end, and a new, random bland character become the new love interest, whilst relegating Emma as a mostly ignored side character.
The only part I liked was Fiona's return, I absolutely adored her and Hugh's relationship! Other than that, the charm and character of the first three books is just...well lost. For the next book Mr Riggs really needs to put in all he's got to save the series, which I honestly have to say, should have ended after the third.
