I fell in love with the world and these characters back in 2020. I don’t know why it took me so long to finally get to the third book… maybe I didn’t want to let this series go, so I ended up rereading the first two books this year prior to finally getting to book 3. This was a highly anticipated book for me when it was first announced! And Ohhh did it deliver!!! My emotions and mind were pulled every way following the core friends on this journey. I think that’s important to note, the way Roshani writes this is a journey where the characters bond together and solve problems as they figure out the broader mystery of this world. It’s a slow paced fantasy novel that isn’t about the action until it is. The way Roshani has constructed this world on every page is beautiful, and her writing will go down as one of my favourites of all time.
It is sad I am saying goodbye to this world finally, Laila, Séverin, Hypnos, Enrique, and especially Zofia hold a special place in my heart. Though this was the perfect ending to this trilogy 😭♥️

I had no clue where any of this story was going, but I was gagged multiple times. I loved the characters and just their interactions. The relationships are so good and heartwarming. The ending of this is not at all what I expected. I enjoyed the plot of the second one, but the character interactions more in this one. The first one is still the best. I just love the different histories and myths we learn about.
