I loved the mirror visitor quartet, and am sad to say goodbye to Ophelia, Thorn, and the rest of the amazing characters.
Although this book could be confusing at times, the world building, gentle love story, and found family is truly remarkable!

5.0

Esse simplesmente não pode ser o final. Eu não estou pronta. 
Há tanto a se falar sobre essa série em geral, mas esse último livro me virou e desvirou do avesso tantas vezes que agora eu tenho certeza de que existirá sempre um pouco de Ophelie em mim. E gosto de acreditar que existe um pouco de mim em Ophelie também. A passa-espelhos é um romance sobre a manipulação da memória coletiva e sobre o apagamento da história, mas esse pano de fundo é tão sutil que é fácil esquece-lo as vezes. Nesse último livro, chegamos ao final épico em que todas as peças se encaixam e todas as respostas são colocadas na mesa, mas é tudo mais complicado e envolvente do que qualquer um de nós poderíamos ter imaginado. 
Eu agradeço mil vezes a oportunidade de ter conhecido esse mundo cheio de falhas e conflitos, de ter viajado ao Polo, resolvido mistérios no Luz da Lua, estudado em Babel e de ter virado do avesso em meio a essa tempestade de Ecos. Obrigada Christelle Dabos, por essa história que vai ecoar sempre na minha história. Que possamos todos ter a coragem e a resiliência de uma passa-espelhos.
